Car: 1972 Chevrolet Malibu
![]() |
Purchased May 12, 1972 at Cornell Chevrolet Oldsmobile Ltd. In Victoria by my father A.W. Moffat and was passed on to myself the second owner in 1997 with less than 45,000 original miles. The car was only off the Island once and that was for a trip to Alberta.
Since I have owned the car I have had it re-painted, the original color, placer gold, replaced the carpets, front and rear, and had the interior and engine compartment shampooed, and replaced the original tires with Good Year Eagle GTII. Front and rear shock absorbers were also replaced. Other than these few minor changes, this vehicle is completely original and stock.
