Many moons ago, I told daves87rs I'd snap a pic for him. It kind of fell in my lap today.

Did it hurt when it fell in your lap?

Nice ride. I love it when people do mods to a car in such a way that it looks like it came that way from the factory.

Wow, that's great!

Man, that is nice. Understated and tasteful. Just shows, that car had some good basic bones.

Blu, I can't remember you posting photos!....is this your first?...are you no longer a pic virgin?

that's nice. z24 have the 2.8 v6, right?

theorectically a 3.9L would fit?

Harl: Oh, I'm in the picture thread, way back, and I've posted a (very) few general pics since, but they were always with a borrowed work camera. I recently purchased a Kodak C633, so I'll be putting some pics up once in a while.

loki: not sure if that was still the 2.8, or if it is the 3.1. I wonder if a 3800 S/C would fit?

Well, one fits into 4th gen Grand Ams... There's a pic of one somewhere.

that looks to old to be the 3.1L version to me... looks like maybe a '90 cav? could be wrong. i thought the 3.1L were in that refreshed bodystyle after this...

SOme engines can fit so unexpectedly into such cars. I have seen a 2001 Grand Am at Woodward and it had a 350 Chevrolet V8 in it. It confused me because I thought it was a muscle car but it was the Grand Am and it looked heavily riced LOL. These Cavaliers and Sunbirds are very nicely designed. Unfortunately, the Sunbird I was interested in wasn't worth the $200. It would've never past safety tests, sadly.

Nope, it's a 85-87 Cav.

They had the 2.8 in the Z24s until 1990...which got the 3.1s...

My wagon has a 3.1...

Yes.

There is a guy putting one into a 86 sedan as we speak...

dang i was close!!!! i was just guessing!

I like it. All it needs is either body-colour trim on the front, or keep black rub strips that look to have been removed.

I too would muich rather drive that then a RSX, element,

Ridgeline or other such HON-DUH produkt...

Much more fun to drive too..trust me on that. :AH-HA_wink:

What? You fools are crazy. Give me the RSX.

This thing pretty much has the same material quality as an RSX.

Best looking Cavalier I've ever seen.

Oh it burns.... it's a DEEP BURN!!!

I don't get Fly's or Sly's posts. That has to do with taking a Cavalier over an RSX and the Cavalier being more fun... how? Yeeeah, give me an RSX and I'll have fun in the twisties. Give me a Cavalier Z24 wagon and I'll fun beating the crap out of it on some dirtroad. Hmm... decisions, decisions.
