    Hi. im new to this forum. i own a 1979 chevy malibu classic estate wagon it is my first car but it has been in my family for 6+ years. im only 16 so im not really interested in restoring my car. i would rather customize it.

    so im here to ask questions and hopefully get some advice from all you experienced station wagoners! :tiphat:

    Your wagon is your car. You do her up the way YOU want. There's a lot of different tastes on here and they're all done the right way!
    You obviously have great taste on two counts. First you picked a great wagon for your first car and second you picked the best forum on the net to seek out advice for it. :thumbs2: Are you willing to share a few pics, I'm sure we would all like to see it.

    :Welcome: aboard Kid, hope you enjoy the station wagon forums!

    Its a 267 4.4. I'm not sure if this motor is even worth my money. Ill probably throw a 350 in a couple years down the road.
