irishandy -> 1983 Chevrolet Malibu info request (6/16/2006 4:21:19 PM)

1st: Hi all!

then; perlease somebody, anybody help me out. Now let me tell a story..............

I am from Northern Ireland and have seen a '83 Chevy Malibu 5L V8 CL?? for sale. I am really tempted by this proposition (classic, american, big engine,etc.) but really can not find any info on this rare animal. [:(]

Can anyone help with any specs for this wagon, such as BHP, engine size, rear wheel drive, reliability, and general opinions????

Any feedback will be more than welcome [:)]

Thanks in advance,
Andy
