What have you done to your wagon lately? (Let's keep the thread going!)

Thanks! I’ve got a bunch of details in my introductory post. It’s a 79 factory 4 speed Malibu that my dad bought as a father/son project back in the late 90’s. Everyone lost interest in it over the years until I got it out of storage and tore it conpletel apart lol. I’ve got a brand new Richmond super t10 transmission and a homemade shifter (so I could use the original hole in the floor and keep the bench seat) going in place of the original saginaw 4 speed. It just has a .030 over 350 in it. 20 years ago we put a bigger cam, Victor jr intake, and bigger carb on it when we put a 9 inch rearend with 4.56’s in the car. First thing I did when I got it out of storage was get rid of that ridiculous rear gear and put a 3.89 in it. I also threw a set of 195cc AFR eliminator heads on it recently. Hoping to have it ready to go before summer comes

 

Washed it and drove it all weekend…
