my buddy jake sitting in the car

so is this gonna even look like a cavalier when your done? Nice work by the way. Is this for asphalt or dirt? Cant wait to see it finished


My Sig Was To Big

asphalt oval, it will have mostly a 3rd gen cavalier body

good works

Gotta subscribe to this! I had my Cav on a 3/8th dirt oval last summer, but it's now in the junkyard... Lil more damage than was worth fixing for a "stock" class. Below has been on the track too, 1-on-1 drag

Looks like some good work there Bob.

Almost makes me want to get back into crewing again. Had to stop in '03 when I got activated for Iraqi Freedom. The driver/owner stopped driving after that, he didn't have his crew chief anymore to set his car up.

Most people don't realize how much goes into a stock car chasis.

Any updates on this?

i was away for the long weekend, got back sunday morning and started hanging the body and riveting in all the interior tin, this is the parts that takes the longest and looks like it is the easiest, heres some pics. the nose piece and tail piece (01 monte carlo late model style) arrived yesterday so after some modification we will hang those and i did the roof skin last night ill have some more pics in a couple days





here is another one we bought last week, this will end up a race car but for now worked as a great template

awesome, keep chopping the j's up. the less on the road the better LOL

so when are you guys going to do this with the intention of making one streetable with a v8 and rear wheel drive?



You look so much cuter with something in your mouth.

dont know... i am contemplating building one for the stock type division (no tube chassis or gutted bodies) that is dominated by hondas... i have built a few for other people in that division but they are all ln2 cars if i put one in there it will deff be dohc. no i jsut need to find a 2.4 engine trans wiring and computer t build it up, maybe all you j guys could donate a little here or their and i will build a jbo stock car haha

heres some more of what we got done tonight, munted up the rear bumper cover and cut the quarters to fit, also got the roof completely skinned and sitting in place, should make some more body munts tomorrow adn do the front bumper this weekend

even with all of the cavalier 'hornets' and 'lil engines' cars coming out of the wood work they havent made a front or rear clip for one yet?

lol looks weird with monte stuff on it



You look so much cuter with something in your mouth.

the only mini stock body parts made are mustangs, if we could run fiberglass id buy the cobalt pro fwd body hahaha

I think you'd be better off starting a donation rather than asking for parts, that gets complicated dealing with shipping and stuff.

Put JBO donors in a special spot on the trunk or something for contributing over a certain amount, and have the highest donor be listed first. I know I could break loose of at least $20 sometime after the holidays. I'm sure there are more than a few here who could. Then starting looking for blown up 2.4 5 speed cars on craigslist and @!#$.

Just my 2 cents. I like your work.

Our 150 car enduro here was made up of mostly J's, I honestly want to herd the gang here to build one together.

I have an extra set of clear corners if you want them. lol

Nice work too.

started hanging the nose cone yesterday, 01 monte carlo nose had to cut ti done 5 inches in the middle

finally got a lot done just about ready to take it down to a bare chassis and put it on the rotisserie to paint

redid the front frame to a stronger design used on late models


fitting the trunk

rear tin deck

test fitting the hood, still need to cut the reinforcements out


making the a pillar

overall shot

Sweet! Keep up the good work



bc97cavalier
