That's funny, I noticed the same thing.

It does sound great though. Is that you F-body and Z06?

I had a '78 the exact same color... Miss her and my '72 Monte Carlo.

Sucks! But, more so than the Monte I'd like to have "The Mali" back.

I had a 78 malibu in the past and sold it. I put 78 tail lights on the 79 if you hadn't noticed and am still looking for a 78 grille for it. I think the 78's are the best looking years.

Post by: Stantonss on January 06, 2009, 11:47:04 am: I agree.... Especially the grille. Good luck with yours. Very sharp.

You had me hunting craigslist in my area last night.
