You Need This: Collector-grade Chevrolet Chevette?

I'm sorry, but a Chevette with a mere 47 miles on the clock is................still a Chevette.

A friend had one of these in high school.........big revs and clutch dump still wouldn't spin the tire.......it's sad when you can't even get one wheel peel.

If ever there was a sign the 70s GM was dead inside this is it.

I know that there were worse cars in that period, but I have a special association with the Chevette because my parents rented one on vacation, and I had to suffer through a week or so in and around one. I'd like to buy this car, take it to the desert outside of Vegas and sell tickets to it's systematic destruction via a variety of armaments, followed by attacking it with cutting tools, and finally a shredder. 

They actually managed to make a worse car than the Vega.

My MIL had a Vega burn to the ground in her driveway. I'd buy her another if I could.

My first car was an '84 Pontiac T-1000. It served as the family car for a few years l. We didn't need a minivan. Four kids fit in the back seat, and two more fit in the hatch if needed. By the time I got it, it had been handed down from my older brother after a couple years of neglect. The once red paint was many hues of oxidation pink. What was left of the ripped up interior was stained by spilled soda of various flavors. The car suffered from such a lack of power that you drove it like the throttle pedal was an on/off switch. Floor it to go, you didn't really need to worry about going too fast. Which made the freeway interesting- the 85mph speedo was way optimistic. Which was a good thing, because the brakes were worse. Above 35, applying the brakes would shake your fillings out. So I just tried to avoid doing that. But it got me from point A to point B until I saved up enough to replace it. It was only 9 years old and right around 100k miles at the point, but felt decades older than the '88 Mazda 626 I replaced it with. Funny thing when I traded it in. They gave me a few hundred bucks for it, but showed me that when they did the Kelly Blue Book calculation for the trade, the value came up negative.
