Looks like you're well on your way, Dave. Good luck with your project. I'll be 62 in a couple weeks myself, so go at your own pace, you'll do fine. Keep us updated, this will be a fun build to follow along. Take care.

So this is the first time I've seen the car !
But I do have a few pics to add.
Here's the trans and converter .
I'll have pics of the heads from Kadar Performance next.

Thanks, Danny, I'll keep plugging away. I'll get there eventually.

And Mark, it'll be great to see the heads. They were rather unimpressive the last time I saw them. I all but needed a tetanus shot after dropping them off!

Hey Dave, glad to see you finally getting to work on the Malibu. Did you sell the Camaro?

Mark Yacavone · 04-09-2015, 02:33 PM

Okay, here they are..Look better?
I've still got to fit the split guide plates later on.

Here's the carb, which was a swap meet special, now with lots of new parts from Larry Fulton.
Not a 100 pt. restoration but I think it looks alright.

It does look great. Is that a flare fitting on the front?

Yeah, those heads look a world of better!

Rob, I still haven't put the Camaro up for sale. It's been running better than ever lately making it hard to part with it. I think I'll take up my neighbor's offer of a free 283 for the Chevelle to use as a bracket motor and once that's sorted out the Camaro may go. But that will take quite a while. Hopefully I'll see you Saturday?
