Mk1 Cavalier Coupe - My pride and joy!

Post by Cavman »

Greetings from a born again V8er,

Thought I'd share with you my plans.... :)

take this 3.5 RV8 -

add some more parts obviously, and put it in this

My baby blue Mk1 Cav Coupe. I've owned her since 2004 and always thought she was just begging to have a V8 at her heart.

after one false start I have renewed drive to get the project going again, so I'm back on here to hopefully make some progress and some friends!

James


I wish I had a pound for every time some one told me "My Dad had one of those!"

A friend had a orange Chevette as a kid, used to be fun in the snow! Looked very similar! Nice car.

thanks guys,
Ian - I agree with you on the colour front! I like the orange but this always seemed to suit the car better i think.

Will - unfortunately this wasn't on the road during this years 'cold snap' so no fun in the snow recently, but yeah they are..... errr... entertaining :D :D
