Remember the late 90’s early 2000s… Nobody would ever expect a cavalier to be fast. Do a ton of stuff to hit the low 15’s only to run into guys like your future self that laughed at you. 😃 Sweet instructions that I will not remember the next time I’m fishing right before watching my lure disappear into the distance. ---

I still miss my turbo’d cavy ☹ torque steer FTW I’d love to drive @ultradriver10000 s cavy, that has to be the quickest 1st gen short of an all out drag car. ---

Its a really fun car, the 3800 has so much torque and the car is so light that it really surprises a lot of people. ---

Looks good. Be sure to citrus spray it otherwise you’ll be re polishing it in the spring from the salt. I learned the hard way. ---

Could you just coat it with penetrol? That’ll keep the look and protect it. ---
