Nice looking car. But unless it is severely stripped inside, you might be surprised when you get it on a scale. My '63 Nova was right at 3000 and it was stripped. My guess would be 3300-3400. Should still make a great runner.

Cool!! I used to race a '79 Malibu wagon, they're basically the exact same length as the standard Malibu's, as I also had a 2 door that I raced. I had a .030 over 400 small block in the wagon, it surprised a lot of people on the streets. It got totaled on the way to the dragstrip one day when I got rear-ended from behind. Bob
Stock for now. I just want to see what it will run stock and then i will put a cam in, then port or get heads. It will be carbed with a victor jr. 350 turbo with at least 4000 stall. i need to get a better rear for it too.

Nice 
I like the malibu wagons, I`ve always wanted to make one a 2 door using 2 door malibu doors. They are the same length as an El Camino, they are a little longer than a 2/4 door standard malibu.

Any links you can give a guy for swap parts?

I have seen pics of a couple 2 door malibu wagons. I measured it out and it is definently possible. I just don`t have the time/room/money to build one now. Mabey in a couple years.
