And wire wheels, I have seen those on more than one 107. Bad idea - the purists will hate it, it looks odd, and the maintenance can't be fun.

I did last week, and they had a V8/6 speed stick Volvo 740 running. Going cheap at the time. I seriously thought about that one, but knew I would be in way over my head with a bad engine! But man, I always wanted one of them too. Wonder what that one went for?
and, here it is! Went for $2,400. A bargain for what it has, assuming you have a spare engine laying around and talent to do the swap. even farming that out and still a lot of fun for not much money.

I think this is it. Could use a detailed cleaning. Couldn't the goo be removed to give a better representation?

On the road a bit today, highlight was a Sir Mix A Lot style (as I call them) LWB W126 - Centra wheels, SL style grille star, spoiler, still cruising down the highway. Also saw a late model Caddy hearse on a car carrier, an old Beetle, unrestored ~66 Mustang with a 289 emblem, weathered but still moving early 80s Delta 88, and definitely the oddest thing: what I guess was a turn of the century Camaro with a 57 Chevy conversion kit. Just like this:
I couldn't find words for it.
Monstrosity is my word. My reaction is "why"?
2014 Malibu 2LT, 2015 Cruze 2LT,
My friend bought this car only maybe a month ago...bought to resell.
In '74, it always seemed to me that there should have been a model between the Malibu and the Malibu Classic. As it is, it was about equivalent to jumping from a Bel Air to a Caprice Classic, with no Impala model in-between.
It's weird how Chevy trimmed that model. The door panels aren't bad at all, but the seats are taxicab-plain and not attractive at all. I always found that cubbyhole on the left side of the dash on these strange. I guess that is where an A/C duct would be located if the car came so equipped?
I found very few of the Colonnade models attractively styled. All were too big on the outside and too small in terms of usable space. The last 2 years of the Cutlass and Regal coupes were OK, but the 4-doors in any line did nothing for me. I didn't care for the Malibu styling in any year except for the slant nose Lagunas. Even though I had a '77 LeMans, I found the blunt nose and tapered tail strange. Should have been the other way around.

RE.: Cubby hole in dash--that is where an A/C vent would be. On the '73's it was just a cover of black-crinkle hard plastic there.
Those door panels have the strip of fake woodgrain, but they are hard plastic right up to the glass.
I always liked the way those cars looked, and I thought they drove and rode better than the full-size Chevys, but I'd look for a '73 V8 if I could find a nice, authentic or original one. I much-prefer the round taillights, better colors IMHO, and smaller rear bumper.
Those '57 Camaro's look like something out of Alice in Wonderland or White Rabbit.
Even worse, saw an original Scion xA pulling a pop up camper. That poor car didn't look like it was having a good time.
People down here have some kind of fetish with towing things, same all over the south maybe.
