When I was in high school i had a clean but boring 1980 Malibu Classic coupe. The only options it had was V8, auto tranny, AC (did not work
) and AM/FM
8-Track (yes in a 1980 model year car
). Shortly after I graduated HS I had the vinyl top removed and had the whole car repainted 1978 Corvette anniversary silver metallic (same color as the 78 pace car's lower area). But alas the car was totaled in a hit and run accident in Florida. I always vowed I would get another of these cars from the 78-81 model years. They did make the Malibu up to 84 but it only came in sedan, wagon, and el camino versions. Well I came across this car cruising eBay.
It is a 78 coupe in Ohio about 270 miles from me. The only thing I will do if i get it is replace those boring 14" wheels and tires with a set of these.
a set of 98-02 SS Camaro wheels
. What do you guys think?
