who the hell would ever restore a Malibu. That’s the most idiotic thing I have ever heard.

well, the 9ff supercar http://www.pistonheads.com/roadtests/9ffGT9.htm has a floor pan partially made of plywood because it was stronger and lighter for that application than anything else, including carbon fiber ect… So maybe whoever did this car is actually onto something…

Imagine learning a chunk from a hardwood pallet is stronger than an original rocker beam holding up your ass…That car is ready for glass, a bit of sanding, and a good true story…

20 years from now someone’s going to buy it and have a heck of a discovery when they go to restore it

Pretty bootleg? YES!!! But if you think about it, he might not be a car fan like people in CD are, so he was pretty clever on doing that. just add bondo primer and paint and the guy saved himself some bucks trying to buy a new bumper and paint it! Still funny though!

Poor guy couldn’t afford a woody, so he’s building one, a piece at a time.
