This is the cleanest 1978 Malibu you will find on ebay don't let it get away. 

This is a very clean 1978 Malibu two door that I bought from Arizona as one owner about  two years ago now in Southern California in a garage. The rear frame rails are solid no rust (see pics) and with these car they are known for the rear frame rails rotten out.  I bought this car to hot rod and

 

decided it was too clean and original to change. Has cruse control and air-conditioning and both work great. Everything on the car works it is 35 years old so has its nicks and scratches. The interior has bucket seats that are cloth black and gray all the door panels are in good condition.  has original v-8 engine and overdrive automatic trans. with a posi rear-end. The tire are in very good condition along with the Chevy Rally wheels 15x8" on rear and 15x7" on front with steel corvette centers and rings not plastic after market. 

The brakes work like new and has rear air shocks. The car drives like a new and starts every time. It is getting about 18 mpg on average. As I said great car just hate to start changing things on it for the condition it is in.

 

I would rather sit on it for another 10 years than cut it up like most of the Malibu's you see for sale on eBay, they are missing the heating and air units, interiors missing panels and they call them hot rods.

The Malibu is clean enough to put an ls2 engine with 4l60 trans and hook up the ac, cruise and be a very nice car or sell for 25k easily.

 

The Malibu has a hidden hitch that is not visible from the back comes with receiver and ball, it does have air shocks on rear and the frame is solid no rust (see pictures).
also has a Jensen CD player that works good has remote with removable face.
 
The rear end gear ratio appears to be 3:08 I checked it with rear jacked up in the air and counted number of revolution on wheel and drive shaft.
Car is being sold as is and it is listed locally in the paper so please don't get upset if its gone before you know it.

please ask any and all question before you bid and end of auction you can call or text Tony 
661-857-0860

I will help on my end coordinating with shipper, the shipping cost is all on the buyer to cover.
 
Thank you.

Chevy exec confirms SS production model reveal at Daytona on Feb 16

Wed, 06 Feb 2013

The 2014 Chevrolet SS will make its racing debut for the 2013 Daytona 500, but the production version of the car will get its official unveiling on February 16 in Daytona, a week before The Great American Race. According to a report by Automotive News, the reveal has been confirmed by Jim Campbell, Chevy's US vice president of performance and motorsports. With the departure of the Dodge Charger, the new Chevrolet racecar will be the only competitor to feature a V8, rear-wheel-drive layout in both street and NASCAR form.
NASCAR fans will be able to see the new fullsize performance-oriented sedan on display in the festivities leading up to the Daytona 500, but the car won't go on sale until later in the year. The Australian-built Chevy SS will be a low-volume performance model, and it will be priced above the 2014 Impala, which starts at $27,535.

Why does the Corvette Stingray have so many vents? Here's why

Sun, 27 Jan 2013

Just looking at the new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, it's not hard to see that the car's design was created with aerodynamics at the forefront, but Chevrolet designers point out exactly what went into designing the iconic coupe in a pair of recently released videos. The videos show the Corvette going through early design phases, including clay models and wind tunnel tests, as well as talking to the car's chief engineer, Tadge Juechter.
Both videos help explain various aspects of the C7 Corvette, but it's the aero tuning of the car that is most interesting. This includes extra attention paid to the lower air dam and vented hood to help reduce drag and lift, while the rear quarter inlets are for differential and transmission cooling. Juechter said that some of these aero-tuned elements were inspired from GM's involvement in racing.
If you have about five minutes and you can't get enough information about the new 'Vette, then check out the videos posted below.

Chevrolet planning low-cost Corvette under Stingray?

Wed, 27 Feb 2013

If you're burnt out on musings about the Chevrolet Corvette, you'll want to go ahead and skip this post. Motor Trend reports General Motors is hard at work on a low-cost version of the seventh-generation sports car for 2015. Rumored to be called the Corvette Coupe, the car will forgo the Stingray and skip the 450-horsepower 6.2-liter V8 engine in favor of a 5.3-liter V8 with under 400 ponies. If you're keeping track, that's a shade of the same engine found behind the headlights of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra.
The report also suggests the Coupe will receive a number of aesthetic tweaks to separate it from the Stingray, including different front and rear fascias as well as new front fenders and a rear diffuser. Motor Trend says the point of all this is to cut the car's price tag, which means we may see a Corvette on showroom floors for less than $50,000 if this car comes to fruition.
