    V6 Chevette --- SOLD Chevy Chevette with a 2.8L V6 and auto trans. Engine runs but has a rattle that sounds like it may be a rod. It comes with a complete 3.4L V6 (including fuel injection system) and T5 trans from a Camaro. All the hard engine swap work has been done, you could easily put the 3.4L in over a weekend and have parts left over to sell. The Chevette is light weight, rear wheel drive, has a double wishbone front suspension, and rack and pinion steering. They can be fun to drive and a real sleeper with a V6. Car is located near Romeo, Michigan, about 25 miles north of Detroit. $1500 firm. email: gt5racer_99 at yahoo dot com

    A car from Missouri over 10 years old without rust issues?!

    Someone come fan me and put a cold compress on my forehead...I'll be passed out on the floor when you get here!

    (I must admit, though...it looks like you're telling the truth!)

    oh...and are those BMW wheels?

    Now THAT'S a sleeper.

    BTW, the wheels are really just wheelcovers, aren't they? I seem to remember higher-line versions of the Chevette had those same wheelcovers.

    Is a 4.3 interchangeable with the 2.8? I'm guessing now...

    Is the 3600 from pontiac? They supercharged that motor....

    The wheels are BMW wheels, not covers.

    4.3 is a 90deg V6, the 2.8L and 3.4L are 60deg.
