1997 Chevrolet Cavalier Z24

About This Vehicle:

The car came with ZERO options. No cruise, rear defrost, pw or pl, no remote keyless entry, no cd player or cassette-basically nothing. Bottom of the barrel base, but whats really weird? Its not a base at at all, infact a true Z-24, it was ordered for a rental car business without any options, IMO-a rare car. The car has been sitting for quite a few years now awaiting new life. The plan is to collect every part I need to put it back together the way I want to over a little time (already collected quite a bit) and put it together slowly. Most everything listed is sitting in boxes awaiting installment.
