1980 Chevrolet Malibu, 2 door. Tan color, it was actually gold, but it looked tan. I bought it late 1997 and it only had 34,500 KMs on it. At the beginning of 2002 it had roughly 150,000 KM on it and about 162,000 when I sold it last summer.
It was a good car. Very comfortable drive. An old lady owned it before I had it and my parents usually gave here a ride everywhere so she never put much mileage on it. It was mint when I got it (for a measly $1500). The body was still in immaculate shape when I sold it, but the engine was rough, very rough. Had I the money to fix it up, I'd still own it. I miss that car. Sold it for $1200 though I suppose I could've easily gotten $2000+ for it. The body was in such great shape and had no rust. The feller I sold it too was putting in a different engine. Either a 350 or a 450.
I saw it the other day. I wish I could've held onto it for a future project, but I needed the money.
