1986 Short bed 2WD

[MalibuSSwagon]

Thought I'd just take a few mins to show off my ride.

1986 Custom Deluxe shorty 2WD.

Factory ordered options:
305 V8
SM465 4 speed
Power steering
2.73 gears
Deluxe Instrument cluster

I added:
Galant bucket seats to replace the aweful plastic seats
Hella Driving lights on the front pushbar
Factory front sway bar
CD player
Receiver hitch
88-94 Steering wheel

I've had this thing July 09, haven't done much besides maintenance and fix things the PO did. Replaced the overkill double pumper with a 1406 Edelbrock, tuned it, new balljoints, shocks, rubber cab mounts. Its low mileage, 93K now, and no rot thru, just a lot of surface rust to take care of. Thing tow awesome as well! Love the four speed.

Also the glove box was signed by Dale Earnhardt Sr.

Not too bad for free, huh?

When I got it -






It came with these sweet racing seats



I switched them for these seats I had laying around





Hurricane wheels my pops gave me, used to be on his old 84 20 yrs ago. They have sat in storage since, have all new center caps for them too.


Stock caps I found


As it currently sits






I'd like to do a 5.3 LS swap in the future, some OEM buckets, new carpet, and a paint job of course. Paint job is getting done this spring.

Enjoy
