1978 Chevrolet Malibu Wagon Description

This is a clean Chevy Malibu Wagon! I've had it since 2012 and have added a ton of new parts!
CLEAN TITLE Specs: - Engine: 350, 4 bolt main, freshly rebuilt about 8000 miles ago. -
Transmission: 700R4 with overdrive. Less than 500 miles on a fresh rebuild. Upgraded with heavy duty parts and shift kit.- Auburn Posi rear end- Upgraded front suspension with XL sway bars and disc brakes- Flowmaster super 40 exhaust- MSD 5095 DynaForce Starter *new*- Electric fan with temperature sensor and adjust *new*- Autometer Phantom II gauges *new*- MSD 8362 Street Fire HEI Distributor *new*- Holley 4150 600CFM double pumper carburetor *new*- New fuel lines and filter- Chrome alternator *new*- All new pullies- Aluminum hi-flow water pump *new*- New spark plug wires- New spark plugs- New oil pickup, pump, and oil pan gasket- Edelbrock Air Gap Performer intake manifold *new*- Corvette Rally wheels- Brand new Cooper Cobra tires (less than 25 miles on them)- K&N washable air filter *new*- 20% tint all around *new*- Fresh oil change. Royal Purple truck filter- New shocks for the back window- Donut spare with jack- Tons of other new pieces! Includes a custom fitted California Car Cover that was ~$400
Things that don't work:- A/C. When I pulled the motor for the transmission rebuild, I evacuated the A/C system, so it would need to be vacuumed and recharged.- Radio. The deck works, but it's a flip out DVD deck that the flip out mechanism is shot. The sound system needs some help. It has speakers and an amp from the last owner, but I never got around to overhauling it. I only put quality parts in, and I don't cheap out on things. The only backyard fix on the car is that the radiator fan is held in with zip ties. I have literally not taken the time to have someone make some brackets for it. Paint is in decent shape. There is some rust around the chrome pieces, but the underbody is clean. No major body damage, some dings around the car.
Why am I selling this car?Well, I don't want to. I am active duty US Navy and just had my first child. I need to make some room for another vehicle for my wife and when I move again, I won't be able to take that many cars. So, unfortunately, the fun car has to go. That being said, I am not in a hurry to liquidate the car, so please don't come with a low ball offer. These cars have been in high demand and there aren't many out there (unless you want that shark paint job one), so if you want to get your hands on a great example of old muscle, here it is!
Please call or text if you'd like to see it. Take note of the 916 area code, don't use 918, it won't work! Serious inquiries only, please, I work a lot and don't have time for tire kickers. Thanks for looking!
