1979 Malibu with 5.3 swap starting point? Considering parting with my Malibu. I'm just curious what would be a reasonable starting point to ask for it if I did decide to sell? The swap is fully complete and has less than 500 miles on it since completed. All parts are new except for the engine which had 90k on it.
1979 Malibu 2 door 61K
Good frame - no rust
Body is good for the age, a few door dings, probably could use paint(kinda a worthless description without a pic will try to get one up)
5.3L -90K
MSD 6010
650 Holley DP
Edlebrock Performer Intake
Pat G spec'd cam (214/218 .559/.563 111+4)
Jake's Performance th350
Edge 2800 TC
JD Race 8.8 rear w/3:55's
Moog Springs
Bilstein shocks/struts
F-body manifolds to true dual 2.5" mandrel bend system w/Magnaflows dumped before rear axle
Spohn steering components with 3rd gen z28 steering box
Spohn lower control arms w/ JD Race custom uppers
Speedway rear disc conversion
17x9 Torque Thrust M's on new rubber all the way around
Harwood 3" cowl hood

Pics added. Need to take some better ones, but these are all I had on hand. One before the hood and one after. It has full interior as well, which I would rate as fair for the age as well, maybe 6-7/10.
