Title: I'm so old....

That this looks cool  http://www.usedottawa.com/classified-ad/6459169 (http://www.usedottawa.com/classified-ad/6459169)  >:D

A teenager down the road has a 4 door automatic that he got for 100 and is fixing.  It has its exhaust exiting just in front of the rear wheel.  He is apprenticing at a local garage.  The owner has some nice muscle cars.  He says "well, I'm not real sure about that exhaust pipe"   O0

Sorry Gary, Chevettes don't become cool until someone stuffs a 350 in them.

...or is that suicidal?  I can't remember which it is.   :D

Speaking of cool Chevettes, a farm on Hwy 7 just east of McNeeley has a Chevette on a 4x4 truck chassis for sale...

Or shoves a 2.3litre 4-cyl Lotus Twin Cam in them.  ;)

Although they have different body styles, the UK and North American Chevettes were built on the same platform.

In all seriousness, Chevettes were kinda cool for their time.  Inexpensive to feed & maintain, and hard to kill.  I abused an Acadian quite thoroughly for a few years until I used a failed clutch pedal bushing as an excuse to purchase a lonely Fiero in a consignment yard....
