'66 Malibu N/SA

[Dave Muller]

The Chevelle spent a day and a half in Darin Dolezal's shop and got the doors adjusted. They work a lot better now, and look a lot better too.

Once I got it home again my son helped put in the windshield and back window. I also trimmed and dyed the carpet that will go where the back seat used to be.

The one negative was that my oil leak came back. This time I'm trying cork gaskets, but I may go the route I did with the Camaro, cast aluminum valve covers that are rigid enough I can tighten them extra, using steel-reinforced rubber gaskets.

Anyway, here's the car with the glass in:

Oh man that headliner looks good. I could not find someone to come to the house so I'm giving it a shot myself. Most frustrating thing I've done in some time. I'll probably have someone RE do it down the road but for now it'll do to get the car on the track.

Projects looking good!!

Yes, he did an awesome job on that headliner.

That engine and engine bay look nice. Turned out great!

Here's a minor update. Nothing to take a picture of, but I got the front end aligned and the brakes fixed this week.

The brakes continue the story of my life where anything I touch that contains fluid will leak. They put sealer on the connections and bled the brakes and they seem to work pretty well now.

And I have a pair of aluminum valve covers and steel/rubber gaskets on order from Summit now.

Tomorrow I take the car in to Comp Chassis for the roll bar. I still plan on testing in Tucson May 6, though I could get a pass or two in on the following Friday night at Wild Horse instead or in addition to, if the need arises.

Mike will do a great job on the cage for you. And he will always get the job done when you need it done.

I seemed to have seen this Malibu at a repair shop just the other day. I was working on my rods in the other building.

enjoy following your build, probably a better idea to have RB installed and then install headliner..even the best RB fabricators will SCORCH a poor, defenseless Headliner now and again....can't wait for track results.....

Will you have the car at the next Team race? Joann and I will be testing her car Friday night She needs some seat time.
