Classic my ass

I am back. I have to be brief but after saying I need to post more to make it to 1000 before the decade ends, this is what you get. It ain't much but it is something.

I was thinking about my grandmother the other day. Actually, I was watching some 1970s movie on AMC, or browsing it. I noticed a Malibu. I recall that my grandmother's car through the 70s and into the 80s was a Malibu Classic. I am, to this day, unsure what the "Classic" was all about. I did get my license in a shit, er chocolate, brown Malibu. That puppy had a high tech, new fangled audio system complete with an 8 track player. It was the late 70s (I got my license in 1980 for those scoring at home). Nothing like a V-8 engine and an 8 track player.

Anyway, my grandmother had the Malibu Classic. Hers was a nicer, less basic car, but there was NOTHING classic about it. If it were so classic, when Chevrolet (GM) remodeled and re-released the Malibu, why did they not redo a Malibu Classic?

That is the question for you all to ponder until I post again. Ciao!
