SUPER CLEAN 1 OWNER 96K MILE MALIBU CLASSIC WAGON ORIGINAL SURVIVOR 100PIX+VIDEO

NORESERVE ON THIS CLEAN, OLID AND STRONG DRIVER CLASSIC 1 OWNER 1976 MALIBU WAGON WITH 96K ORIGINAL MILES!! THIS WAS ORIGINALLY PURCHASED HERE IN WASHINGTON STATE AND HAS REMAINED HERE IN WASHINGTON ALL IT'S LIFE WITH JUST 1 OWNER! HERE NO SALT IS USED ON THE WINTER ROADS SO THIS IS A VERY SOLID CAR WITH NO CANCER. THIS CLASSIC WAGON HAS ALWAYS BEEN A REGISTERED VEHICLE OF THE ROAD WITH NO ACCIDENTS AND A CLEAN WA STATE TITLE. THIS GENERATION OF MALIBU HAVE BECOME VERY HARD TO FIND NOW DAYS, SPECIALLY THE WAGONS, S MANY LOST THEIR LIVES IN THE 80'S AND 90'S TO DEMO DERBY'S. THE ONE AND ONLY OWNER HAS TAKEN INCREDIBLE CARE OF THIS CAR AND IN THE LAST FEW YEARS IT HAS SEEN LITTLE USE AS THE OWNER HAS GOTTEN UP THERE IN AGE AND IS NOW NO LONGER DRIVING. THE CAR WAS GARAGED AND STILL HAS A NICE GLOSSY ORIGINAL LACQUER PAINT FINISH. THIS LITTLE WAGON BEAUTY IS NOT SHOWROOM PERFECT, UT A COMPLETE & GREAT LOOKING DRIVER THAT HAS GREAT HISTORY, OW OWNERSHIP AND CRISP FACTORY LOOK THAT SCREAMS LATE 70'S :)PLEASE READ ALL THE WAY THROUGH THE BOTTOM OF THE AD, CHECK OUT THE 100 DETAILED PICS AND VIEW ALL THE VIDEOS!

I AM A WAGON GUY AND FOR WHAT EVER REASON LOVE AND WANT ALL WAGONS UGLY OR NOT AND THIS BODY STYLE OF THE MALIBU ARE A GREAT MUSCLE CAR/CLASSIC TO GET INTO BECAUSE THEY ARE A BLAST TO OWN AND ARE A FRACTION OF THE COST OF PRE 73 BODY STYLES. SADLY A LOT OF THE MALIBU COUPES AND WAGONS IN THIS BODY STYLE WERE THROWN TO THE SIDE FOR 72 AND OLDER BODY STYLES AND NOW ARE GETTING HARDER AND HARDER TO FIND ESPECIALLY SOLID AND ORIGINAL ACCIDENT FREE EXAMPLES THAT HAVE HAD NO TO FEW ALTERATIONS LIKE THIS 1976. THESE 73-77 FULL BODY AND TRUE FRAME CARS HAVE ALWAYS BEEN AN ATTRACTIVE CAR TO ME AND I'M GLAD TO SEE THEY ARE FINALLY GETTING SOME ATTENTION AND RECOGNITION COMING THEIR WAY IN THE LAST FEW YEARS. THEY HOPEFULLY WILL STARTING TO CLIMB IN VALUE AS THE YEARS GO ON AND THE AFTER MARKET IS HAS A FULL LINE OF REPRODUCTION FACTORY RESTORATION PARTS AND MODERN UPGRADES AVAILABLE. THIS WAGON IS ONE THAT CAN BE PERFECTED AND FIXED UP WHILE STILL BE DRIVEN AND ENJOYED DURING THE PROCESS, R LEFT AS IT IS AS A DRIVER CAR WITH A CLEAN AND CRISP ERA CORRECT LOOK THAT GETS A LOT OF COMMENTS AND THUMBS UP THAT I WAS SURPRISED AND HAPPY TO SEE! :)

BODY- NICE CLEAN DRIVER WITH A SOLID ORIGINAL PAINT AND BODY. MOSTLY ORIGINAL PAINT WITH PREVIOUS PAINT WORK DONE DECADES AGO ON THE PASSENGER SIDE THAT MATCHES AND HAS AGED PERFECT WITH THE REST OF THE CAR. THIS CAR HAS NO RUST AND VERY LITTLE FLAWS AND COMPLAINTS BEYOND YOUR LITTLE SMALL ROAD WEAR THROUGH THE PAST NEARLY 40 YEARS. PAINT IS NICE AND SHINY, O DENTS, O MEDIUM TO LARGE SCRATCHES, O LARGE CHIPS IN PAINT AND NO REAL RUST. IT HAS YOUR TYPICAL SMALL STONE CHIPS ABOUT THE SIZE OF A PENCIL TIP ALONG THE FRONT EDGES OF THE HOOD, RONT VALANCE, ENDERS, LONG LOWER PART OF BODY AFTER THE TIRES AND IN A FEW PLACES ALONG THE SIDE PANEL OF THE CAR. IT ALSO WILL HAVE A COUPLE SMALL LITTLE DOOR DINGS, ITTLE SMALL SCUFFS AND SCRAPS HERE AND THERE IN THE PAINT FROM THE PAST 40 YEARS. THERE IS SOME SCUFFING BELOW THE REAR GATE FROM LOADING ITEMS, UT THE REAR HATCH POPS RIGHT UP AND STAYS UP AMAZINGLY. THIS CAR HAS A CLEAN UNDERSIDE, LEAN LOWER AREA OF PAINT AND SHEET METAL AND ONLY REAL COMPLAINTS OR BUMMERS IS ON THE ROOF THEY HAD ONE OF THOSE OLD CHEAP ROOF RACKS THAT CLAMPS THE RAIN GUTTER AND WREAKS NOTHING BUT HAVOC ON A GUYS PAINT. IT WAS ONLY RECENTLY REMOVED AND YOU CAN SEE ALL FOUR CORNERS WHERE IT WAS MOUNTED IT WORE THE PAINT AWAY THROUGH THE YEARS ALL THE WAY TO BARE METAL AND WAS NOT ADDRESSED AND CREATED SURFACE RUST IN THOSE SPOTS, OU CAR POKE AND SCRAP THOSE AREAS AND IT MAKES A SOLID METAL SOUND AND DOES NOT FLAKE. ON THE FRONT SIDE OF THE ROOF THERE IS ALSO SEVERAL SOFT SMALL DIVOTS OR DENTS WITH NO PAINT DAMAGE FROM ITEMS THAT HAVE BEEN LOADED UP THERE IN THE PAST, UT HEY THAT'S HOW THESE WAGONS GOT SO POPULAR AND HAVE WON SO MANY OF OUR HEARTS. ALL THE CHROME IS IN REALLY NICE SHAPE WITH A NICE DEEP MIRROR LIKE REELECTION AND NO FOGGY LOOK. ALL LIGHTS AND LENSES ARE CLEAR AND HAVE GOOD COLOR. ALL RUBBERS AND DOOR SEALS ARE ORIGINAL AND DO SHOW SOME AGING, UT STILL LOOK NICE AND BLACK WITH LITTLE CRACKING AND KEEP OUT THE RAIN. THIS CAR HAS A VERY CLEAN LOOK AND STANCE BUT AS MENTIONED ABOVE THIS CAR HAS ALWAYS BEEN A DRIVER QUALITY CAR ALL IT'S LIFE, UT THIS CAR DESERVES TO GO TO IT'S NEW HOME TO EITHER BE DRIVEN OR WHAT ID LOVE TO SEE IT SOME FRESH PAINT TO THE ROOF, OWERED DOWN, LOWMASTERS, INTED WINDOWS AND SOME PAINTED TO MATCH 18" STEELIES WITH COPO POVERTY CAPS :). OVERALL ALL THE ITEMS MENTIONED ABOVE ARE VERY SMALL AND OVER LOOKED BY MOST SINCE THEY ARE ONLY SEEN AT CLOSE INSPECTIONS AND THIS CAR LOOKS INCREDIBLE CRUISING DOWN THE ROAD AND HAS A NICE CRISP CLASSIC LOOK PARKED AT ANY CAR MEET.

INTERIOR- THE INTERIOR OF THIS CAR IS ALL 76 ORIGINAL THAT IS ALL INTACT AND CLEAN FOR 40 YEARS OLD AND VERY RESPECTABLE. THIS IS A VERY COMFORTABLE CAR TO DRIVE AND RIDE IN THAT IS EASY TO SEE OUT OF AND MANEUVER. IT WAS A LOADED UP CAR WHEN NEW WITH FULL DELUXE INTERIOR, /C AND TILT THAT IS VERY TIGHT WITH NO COLUMN ISSUES. THE AIR CONDITION PUMP AND LINES ARE INTACT, UT IT NO LONGER BLOWS COLD. THE WIPERS AND INTERIOR LIGHTS OPERATE CORRECTLY, INDOWS MOVE SMOOTH AND FAST AND ALL LOCKS CAN BE LOCKED FROM INSIDE OR OUT EASILY. INSIDE IT HAS A REALLY CLEAN DASH THAT IS PRETTY MUCH PERFECT WITH GOOD COLOR WITH NO FADING AND NICE WOOD WITH CHROME TRIM, O CRACKS IN VINYL AND CRYSTAL CLEAR GAUGES ALONG WITH ALL SAFETY AND ENGINE VIDAL LIGHTS THAT WORK( IDIOT LIGHTS) ALL FOUR DOOR PANELS ARE IN GOOD SHAPE WITH NO PHYSICAL DAMAGE OR MARK, UT HAVE FADING ON THE PLASTIC PART, UT THE VINYL HAS GOOD COLOR. IT HAS FRONT AND REAR FULL BENCH SEATS THAT HAS BELTS FOR 6 AND ARE ALL IN NICE SOLID SHAPE WITH NO BRITTLE OR BROKEM DOWN FLAT FEEL. THE FRONT HAS A CENTER FOLDING ARM REST AND IS IN BASICALLY PERFECT SHAPE WITH NO BREAK DOWN OR SIGNS OF WEAR EXCEPT SOME SUN FADING ON THE BOTTOM PART YOU SIT ON, ET STRANGELY THE PART YOU REST YOUR BACK ON AND THE BACK SIDE IS THE ORIGINAL SHADE AND LOOKS PERFECT. THE REAR SEAT LOOKS LIKE IT HAS NEVER BEEN SAT IN AND LOOKS PERFECT WITH NO FADING OR WEAR AND IT ALSO FOLDS DOWN INTO THE FLOOR FOR FULL CARGO ROOM FROM THE TAILGATE TO THE BACK OF THE FRONT SEATS. NICE ORIGINAL GLASS WITH NO CRACKS, HIPS OR FOGGING. REALLY NICE HEADLINER WITH NO SAGGING, ISCOLORING OR HOLES ALONG WITH THE VISORS THAT STAY UP. THE CARPET DOES SHOW AGE AS YOU CAN CLEARLY SEE AND IS PULLING UP AT THE OUTER EDGES AND BUNCHING UP, ET AGAIN THE REAR LOOKS LIKE IT HAS NEVER SEEN FOOT TRAFFIC AND HAS NO SUN FADING. OVERALL FOR 40 YEARS OLD IT LOOKS GREAT AND IS VERY RESPECTABLE, ET WITH JUST A LITTLE CARPET WORK UP FRONT AND SOME PAINT ON THE DOOR PLASTICS AND THIS INTERIOR WOULD BE A TEN!

MECHANICAL- THIS CAR CLEARLY ISN'T EAT OFF IT SPOTLESS, UT FOR BEING A 76 AND ALL UN TOUCHED FACTORY ORIGINAL IT IS VERY SOLID, LEAN AND DRY UNDER THE HOOD AND UNDERSIDE OF BODY. YOU CAN SEE ALL FACTORY DECALS CLEARLY UNDER THE HOOD AND EVERY THING IS UNTOUCHED UNDER THE HOOD, HERE IS NOT ONE BOLT OR COMPONENT MISSING OR OUT OF ALIGNMENT. IT HAS THE STRONG 5.7 350 V8 AND AUTO TRANSMISSION. ELECTRIC CHOKE CARB THAT HELPS THIS CAR TO ALWAYS FIRE RIGHT UP. THIS MOTOR PULLS STRONG WITH NO SMOKING, OADING UP, ICKING OR HESITATION AND SOUNDS GREAT WITH A VERY QUIET AND SMOOTH SEWING MACHINE LIKE SOUND. THE 3SPEED AUTOMATIC TRANS SHIFTS NICE AND QUICK WITH NO HESITATING OR SLOPPY SHIFTS. THIS WAGON DOWN SHIFTS QUICKLY AS IT SHOULD UNDER HEAVY ACCELERATION AND UP SHIFTS SMOOTHLY AND CONSISTENTLY THROUGH THE GEARS. THIS CAR STEERS VERY TIGHT AND TRACKS STRAIGHT WITH A ONE FINGER LIKE DRIVE, OLID SMOOTH BRAKES THAT DO NOT PULL OR SHAKE. IT HAS FACTORY A/C THAT IS ALL INTACT AND IN PLAC, UT NO LONGER BLOWS COLD. IT COULD USE SOME VALVE COVER GASKETS BECAUSE IF IT SITS FOR A LONG TIME WHEN YOU FIRST HIT THE ROAD YOU CAN SMELL SOME OIL BURNING OFF THE MANIFOLDS, UT IF DRIVEN REGULARLY YOU DON'T SMELL IT AS MUCH. IT PROBABLY COULD USE A COUPLE OTHER ITEMS UNDER THE HOOD HERE AND THERE JUST TO GET IT UP TO DATE, UT SHE DRIVES AND RUNS GREAT AS IS AND THIS CAR REALLY IS A LOT OF BANG FOR THE BUCK AND IS A GET IN AND DRIVE RIDE!

WHILE I KNOW EVERYONE'S OPINION IS DIFFERENT THIS WAGON TO ME IS EVERYTHING A OLD CAR SHOULD BE, HILE IT HAS SOME MINOR FLAWS SHOWING ITS JOURNEY AND STORY, T DOESN'T FIT LIKE AND ESCALADE AND MAKES SOME IN CABIN NOISES WHILE AT HIGH SPEEDS, UT IT STILL CLEANS UP NICE, ETS COMPLIMENTS, TARTS CONVERSATIONS WITH STRANGERS AND COMPLETES ANY JOB IT IS ASKED TO. THIS CAR FULFILLS THAT OLD CAR NEED AND FEELING MOST ARE LOOKING FO, UT IF YOU HAVE NOT EVER OWNED OR DRIVEN A VEHICLE OF THIS AGE I HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU SIMPLY LOOK AT THE AMOUNT OF MODERN INVENTIONS THAT HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED SINCE THIS CAR WAS BORN AND HOW FAR OTHER ITEMS HAVE DEVELOPED OVER THE PAST FEW DECADES AND KEEP IN MIND NEW VEHICLES HAVE THE BOXES TO CHECK FOR COMFORT OPTIONS LIKE COOLED & HEATED SEATS, AVIGATION ETC AND VEHICLES OF THIS ERA LOADED MEANT GETTING FM STEREO, /C AND A POWER STEERING:)
