There is a sweet 1970 Malibu for sale out near the stables. Maroon,
looks like a stock, garaged car, soooooooo pretty...


Not to be a party pooper, but I've never understood the fascination
with
these cars.
First of all, they are a dime a dozen. As a collectible, they really
aren't worth much.
Second, having driven several, they handle like crap, ride like crap
and
are not particularly "fast".


To each their own, I suppose.

There is a car for everyone. Look at this Auto Group.

Check out some of those beauties

You could trick out the Corvair engine also. Lots of the sand rails used to
use them. When I first moved into this house, young guy down the street had
a beetle that he had a 350 Chevy in the back seat. Mid engined. Only
problem was getting enough cooling air to the radiator in the VW's belly
pan.
