Basketcase Rescue: Baca’s Pro-Touring Malibu

By Jen Dunnaway

Editor

Baca got his 1980 Malibu wagon "practically for free," and after tearing down the roasted V6, realized he had nothing but potential on his hands. He’s built a substantially modded 355—check out all the engine parts he’s got in it—and is currently test-fitting the twin turbo setup he’s building. The turbos will come back off to be ground down and polished to a shine, and I haven’t even gotten into the gorgeous suspension yet. Check out the ride page for this interesting project—Baca’s got a ton of great build pics and detail shots.

the bottom end specs are bigger than a 355…love the wagon. I gave up searching years ago locally. Glad to see it…

I think Baca means cow in Filipino… Uh, nevermind.
