OK, so what the heck is this? Well, its a magazine, its a website, hell, who knows what it will wind up being. Call it a grand experiment to see if we 1978-1988 G-Body lovers can sustain an epic project like this.
Welcome to GBodyMagazine
The idea is to have a magazine, well, eventually have a magazine. To start we’re doing this awesome website. Once we get the ball rolling with some articles and photos and videos(!) then the plan is to start rolling out the Magazine in a digital format. When we take over the world digitally, then its on to the newsstand and mailboxes of the world.
So, if you love G-Body cars, stay tuned. If you’d like to contribute your G-Body knowledge, in any way possible, feel free to visit our “submit your content and ideas” page and throw your ideas at us. I’m serious, anything from just a photo and description of your car, to a detailed multi-part series, full photo spreads, whatever, lets get this thing rolling, man.
And yeah, I realize that “G-Spot” is probably pretty lame, but I had to come up with something to call the “editor’s note” portion of the magazine, and it seemed like a good idea at the time. At least that’s my story and I’m sticking to it.
Oh, and be sure to head on over to GBodyForum.com, where all us cool G-Body kids hang out.

I have a 1978 malibu custom project pro touring/G-Machine and my mom’s one owner 85 Monte Carlo beautiful original car, also I’m about to acquire an 87 Monte Carlo SS t-top car, love them G-body for life.
I have an ’81 Monte Carlo (Lowrider) and I am apart of a car club that is comprised of only G Bodies! (West Texas G Bodyz Car Club located in Lubbock, Texas) The G Body love is definitely strong in these parts!
I think this is an awesome idea, I have a 1979 Grand Lemans not to many around.extremely hard to find parts for but I love it. It has a70 455 bored 30 over th400 behind it with 3:73’s. geos pretty good
Man, have i been wanting this forever. A bodies get all the attention in magazines and aftermarket, but for me, the G body is a darling, and i dearly love my 79 Elky, that has been a project car for six years, and i still have not gotten to the body work. Motor, trans, posi, delphi steering gear and Detroit speed underneath make it special. To me anyway.. Someday i will be finished with the car, and i believe that will be the best day and the worst day of my car life.
Good luck with everything, i will stay tuned…
Ground up restriction going on on my 85 g body ss cant wait until it’s done in about 3 months. And I am doing it all myself.
