This car also made a fairly decent police car.At the other end of the spectrum in ’78 was the 350 available on El Caminos and Malibu wagons. Donated it to the local FD for training purposes, and boy was it fun watching them cut that Malibu up. So upgrading to two or four speakers is part of fitting a modern stereo system…on my ’79 I replaced the one 4×10 with two 4″ round speakers in the same center mounting, and added two 5x7s mounted in the rear parcel shelf.They did have a AM-FM stereo option for 78-83 and also a rear speaker option for 78-83The rear speaker option was UX6 and in 1979 it was $21.00. They never lasted long in the junkyard!Here’s a link to a CC on the Malibu Iraqi Taxi. In 1982, a new front end was added, featuring more modern-looking quad headlights. Actually not quite, as I wasn’t blessed with the Classic trim for my first forays behind the wheel. [That arm rest in the rear door was a recessed ledge INTO the door — it kept the rear seat open for three adults or four kids, but certainly prevented the installation of a window operator] Sadly, the number of plastic tubes used under the hood was great in those pre-electronic control days, yet these tubes could not take the harsh environment of the engine compartment. They had a lot to recommend them too: cheap to buy and operate, functional, relatively durable and reliable for the times, etc. I say this only because ubër-cheap stuff like the Chevy Spark comes ‘standard’ with power windows.I’m not against the minivan. Especially with the earlier six-window roofline, I still to this day think it’s a good-looking car.During this era, the Big Three were no longer marching in lockstep when it came to revamping their product lines. So very, very ’70s.Very nicely written article altogether though! I do remember the G car having steep throttle tip-in (not necessarily a good thing), good directional turn-in, as well as the much talked about “guided missile” effect of that solid, confident, straight-ahead motion when cruising down the highway that GM cars are known for.I reluctantly admit these things about the Chevy as I was in denial for the longest time growing up thinking that the slightly larger Chryslers were better than the G bodies. ® A registered trademark of the National Automobile Dealers Association, under license to J.D. The only 2 years without a styling change were the final years of ’82 and ’83, and those two can be differentiated by the Malibu scripts (font and placement change)..If anything when the Malibu 4 Door Sedan was redesigned in 1981, it has a bit of a superficial resemblance with the 1979 Nova 4 Door Sedan especially with the new grille as well. Strip off the crappy smog gear and put a proper 4V and dual exhaust on it and it would be a sweet sleeper.What a reminder of the grim state of the automobile in 1980-82. I ended up repainting both but that’s another story, and less than ideal in retrospect. I remember my Dad overhauling the carb on ours at some point in the mid ’80s. Nobody in Europe was imitating Mercedes styling in the mid-70s.Where I came from, Ford fielded the Fairmont (I6) and Zephyr (I4) to compete with the Malibu.Having sat in the GM and blue oval ones, and seeing how cars from each OEM looked after 25+ years in service, I stick to my choice.Actually I think the Mercedes comparisons are pretty silly, remember there were also ads comparing it to the Rabbit and the Seville. seriously? I remember well Reagan arriving to take the oath of office in an ’81 Monte Carlo.Words are such a fickle thing. Did they do that in order to save money? GM V6s had a clear advantage over Ford’s 200 & 250 dogs. Awful cars. He backed out of the deal and GM Canada had a glut of these things they unloaded on Canadian dealers. Must be really a challenge to find parking spots in Paris – which is my guess of the location – looking at the background, and the car behind it with a plate that ends in “75”.It might seem odd, but I found the Malibu to be quite nimble in the crowded streets of Paris.Because of automatic transmission and low end torque, I was always in the “right” range of power.
