R.I.P to my 05 Cavalier, LOTS of pics.
Tuesday, October 17, 2006 8:33 PM
Well over a month ago as some of you may know i got rear ended, hit twice both impacts on the drivers side rear. It took it's toll on the car, the pics don't do it much justice but from what the body shop told me everything from the floor pan below the rear seats and back needed to be replaced, not to mention a bent frame. Therefore they finally decided it was a total loss after 3 weeks in the body shop. Anyway here is a flash back to the quick year i had with it.

The day i bought it



Just threw the rims off my 97 cav on it about a month or so after i bought it
11-2-05



It's first J-Body meet in philly


4-19-06 got the lips on and painted


Finally lowered on Gravana Coilovers, this was about 3 weeks before the accident.



The last pics i took of it, for the hotbodies contest, about a week before the hit.


The day it got hit



And This was from when i brought it home from the body shop, the day before the J-yard




Almost new ecotec, i hope someone picks it up! hate to see it wasted.

with it's buddy for the last time

and here is the last pic before i gave it away, totaly stock again.


Although i might not be buying another J i won't be leaving the org, i still have my 97 DD 2.2 cav that's running perfect at 93K so it's not going anywhere anytime soon. But I am looking at a Cobalt ss s/c, ION redline, 4X4 colorado, used GTO, or another cavalier.

the unibody is bent to hell and back. they wont fix that. it doesnt look bad, but its definatly totalled. my 99Z24 looked like that, and it was totalled out. My 02 looked almost that bad.. should have been totalled, but they "fixed" it. its never been the same since. i know its sad to see a car go, but its better that they totalled it, you dont want that car after its been "fixed".

PS. Buy the SS/SC. you wont regret it.

It's so sad to see a baby J go so early in life. Especially one of the HOTNESS

Well man I guess it all happens for a reason. Get the 97 back to lookin how it used to. put the gravana's and the sides back on it and throw your exhaust on if ya can. It sucks to see that happen to the car.....

take the front lip kit suspension and wheels to the daily driver paint it and your set..... hell since you got the whole car transfer the eco setup to it and you wont have no need for a new j.... you could easily make your 97 100% 05 besides the title

sorry about what happened but that damange isnt that big of a deal for a shop to fix really, my dad owns a auto shop and does this stuff everyday. no reason to total it i wouldnt think

Im still upset about the whole thing nick. That car had so much potential, but on the bright side you got 99% of what you payed for the car back and you can put a nice down payment on anyone of those cars you mentioned.

Sucks, but I could see that car back on the road. It will sell at a insurance auction, and someone will rebuild it. Heck we have a wreck 04 with a perfect back end that would go nicely on there. Also I would have done the Ecotec swap into your daily driver and put the daily driver motor and trans in it, and gave it to them!!!!!

Make your 97 a 05. Hell you have almost everything for the swap.
