There’s a point in every project where it takes on a life of its own. This is one of them, and since it was my child, I get to go all first-person as the proud parent. The 1971 Malibu wagon you see here had several lives in its journey from bone-stock to crazy idea, to crazier idea, and as we built it over at Super Chevy magazine, many people had a hand at turning it into this pro-touring beast of a wagon.
It all started nearly two decades ago with a wagon owned by Yancy Johns. He had it painted Mustang Mineral Grey, added the Chevelle SS hood, and sent it to us for a basic bolt-on LS-Swap and pro-touring work-over. Global West suspension, JRi
