1978-1983 Chevy Malibu Parts
The 1978–1983 Chevrolet Malibu ushered in a new age for GM’s mid-size segment. Lighter and more compact than its predecessors, it was engineered with efficiency and reliability in mind, while still allowing room under the hood for small-block V8 power. Popular with law enforcement fleets and private owners alike, the Malibu balanced performance, accessibility, and practicality. Its rear-wheel-drive chassis and classic proportions made it an enduring favorite for restoration projects and performance builds.
As these cars age, rust tends to appear along the lower rocker panels, inner floor braces, and trunk floor sections. Prolonged exposure to road salt or standing water can weaken the structure beneath the seats and doors. Our Malibu parts collection includes complete and sectional floor pans, rocker assemblies, rear quarter panels, and trunk extensions, all machine-formed for weldability and corrosion resistance. Whether you’re restoring a daily driver or building a street rod, these components provide the structural foundation every Malibu deserves.
