1979 Chevrolet Malibu landau sport coupe review from North America

Replaced radiator and hoses, frame rusted badly behind passenger rear wheel, typical of these cars after many Pennsylvania winters.

This styling of this car is classic. Possibly the MOST underrated vehicle ever. In my opinion, this car should be as sought after as a '69 Chevelle, or an Olds 442. Anyone who has owned one and fully realizes just how beatiful the lines were on this vehicle, I think will agree. I see more and more of them in shows as the years roll on, but I will never understand why this car has yet to get the full recognition it deserves. About the car specifically: mine had vinyl bucket seats, auto. on the floor, landau top, rally wheels, and was, I believe, some color of brown that Chevy then called Champagne?? The airplane-geared tranny and the 267 were of course less than impressive as far as power, but when I bought this car, it was 100% original right down to the first set of factory tires. I maintained and cleaned this car to a ridiculous degree, and it never let me down. In today's day and age, you couldn't give me a Chevy vehicle, but this car was truly a classic.
