Hi all,

Just looking for my next new(er) project...was wondering if any one knows if a '79 to '81 Malibu ever came with a 4 spd, and a V8 as an option? Also, what about bucket seats and a console? Sounds stupid, I know, but in looking through the ads, I have not seen a 4psd. version, at least from the factory.

Any info. back is appreciated, as always,

Bobalouie

4 speed was option # MM4, and was installed in .05 percent of the cars.
Vinyl buckets were a $85.00 option on coupes, ....in 1979.

In 1980 only .01 % had 4 speeds. I see the 4 speed listed for 1981 but no installation figures.
