okw ell i figured id make a project thread.....yall kno im tryna trade for a mid 80s monte SS....well...it was going great was gna get a nice one but not so sure now

but ANYWAY...here my curent ride..its not a monte but its like one..its lik a mini monte lol

1989 Chevy Z24, 2.8L v6 bored and stroked to a 3.1, 5 speed manual, dual exhaust with a glasspack and gutted cat....new sound system....fan over ride switch, grant wheel...nothing to special i gues lol

the engine and trans have both been rebuilt 30,000miles ago....the engine was bored and stroked to a 3.1 but everything else inside is stock...i do want to build a 2.8 with high compression and a big cam for it...it runs 15.4 all day in a 1/4 but im looking to lower those times very soon lol

later to come this week are sum rally wheels and a stock spoiler

iv had a hand full of s10s but just to much to list tonite..so anyway

heres it wen i got it....when i wrecked it .... and it today...

it wen i got it











it wen i wrecked it









it right after i fixed it













IT TODAY!!

 

now wen i wrecked it i was on my way home from work in the rain and a scion TC hit her brakes in front of me and i nailed her doin like 45-50...

it bent the frame and everything but we fixed it all...


heres the rally wheels im gettin monday i think!

 

ALSO if u look at the pic of the front of the car as it sits today...on the background u can see a fence and another car....that car is the donor car i got to fox this one...its a 1989 Cavalier base model coupe .... sold it a few days ago for $1000

 

....That kind of brings tears to my eyes........
Here are some photos of my 85 Cavalier Type-10.
I sure do miss that thing........

 

thatsa nice car man....i idk whjy but i love cavaliers....any Sport model tho no base ones...the Type 10...the RS and in amazing Z24....we hav 3..well had...i just sold the donor car..lol



and yea they run forever and hell man my built 2.8 can ALMOST keep up with a 3800 monte...ALMOST...i get walked but hell not bad for a 2.8 vs a 3.8 right?

its my DD and i hav ALOT more mods coming soon...



thats if i dont trade it for a mid 80s Monte SS like im was going to...

 

I believe Taz (Lou) had the same exact car at one point!

 

lol wow thats cool...they r great cars just as the new montes are lol...just montes are roomier...same basic layout tho which is why i got this...i got a GREAT deal on it lol...not gna say how much i paid but if i ever sell it take no less the 3500 lol


and yea i hate how my car is one of the most comon colors they came in but i like them in blue.....thats why wen it goes for paint (if i keep it) its going to b GM's NEPTUNE BLUE!

 

Level the playing field with the other 3800's and do an L67 swap

 

lol an L67? i take it thats a SC 3800?

theres a guy that did a SC 3800 form a 00 monte SS into a 87 z24...

if i didnt have to convert to OBDII i would....but i HATE wiring so the best i can do is a 3400 cuz i can still run of my stock 2.8L ecm....just it will lean out a lil at high RPMS...

 

and isnt my Z24 lighter then a new monte SS? its definatly a little smaller so id think it was lighter too
