Decided to do a run down of our Chevettes and update if anything happens. Here is a bit of history. Here is here car when we got it. It was on a farm somewhere in NJ. Price? Free. They had go get something like 100+ cars off the property. It was stuck in mud, and had a seized motor and no brakes. Here it is after she polished the turds off. Here it is running after we un-seized the motor using trans fluid and a breaker bar.

I put new wheels and tires on it, fixed the brakes, and she drove it around for over a year. It ran, but was REALLY down on power and wouldn't rev over 4,000rpm. We dyno'd it, made like 23whp. And drag raced it. Ran like a 25 second.

Back in the car. Added an electric fan and thermostat. Not shown is the MSD streetfire box and coil. Got rid of the stock distributor guts.

With all the new goodies, it made 48whp on the dyno.
And I made a quick video of it last night after fixing a leaking cam seal.

I have the same exact car! It's in my paps barn and was thinking about getting it running again. It's the bright orange chevy and it's all there! It was my moms first car and I don't want to be made fun of at school with it so I was thinking about making it a sporty looking car what you think on that?

It was my moms first car and I don't want to be made fun of at school with it so I was thinking about making it a sporty looking car what you think on that? I know you wrote this last year, but you probably still have the car, and I hope you rescued it an have it running again. Don't worry about being made fun of, this is how you know who the idiots are. However I'm sure if you got that running right, and polished up, you will have got more people giving you compliments than snickers. Chevett's are not a very common car to see nower days, and the round eye Vett's are getting harder to come by. If you want, you can put in a 2.8 v6 and surprise people with how fast it is at the lights. But I would just keep the stock Gas sipper in it. Make sure it's in top running shape and you will be able to drive all over the place and hardly pay for gas. You can spend that money saved on your girl. That's the better deal.
