buying a 1999 malibu for the wife
first of all, hello everyone! I have a question on the 1999 malibu, and the 2000 impala. My wife is buying a 1999 malibu with 169,000km which seems like a great deal for 800$, the tires are all like new, with a set of snow tires as well. My wifes parents have a 2000 impala that has about 300,000km on it, and its on its death bed. the malibu my wife wants need some work done to it, im a mechanic and have no problems doing it, but I want to know if ANY of the Impala parts are interchangable with the malibu, ie. windshield wiper motor, starter, sensors, switches, etc?
I know there will be too many to list, but I at least want to know if some parts will work. I could likely buy the impala for 100$ which would save on the wiper motor right there.
let me know please. thanks!

parts interchangability
well that is a loaded question, the answer will be just as loaded I own and run GM vehicles only due to the fact that so many parts are interchangible, I would put a $20 on the fact that wiper motors are the same, with different arms bolted on, brake parts should interchange, if the same motor=lotsa parts, trans proly the same...on and on it "could" go just my 3 cents worth
