It could be used but I prefer working with new sheet metal. Sent from my G3121 using Tapatalk

I think I might have two in it, the white Riva and the yellow Cavalier. It's incredibly frustrating because they listed the location as Crossgates with no further location info and I've had about 10 people from Yorkshire calling about it thinking it's Crossgates Leeds. Most of the people who called can't use the internet so trying to forward on detailed photos is difficult. I'd sold the Lada before the advert had even appeared in the paper so whenever someone calls about it I just pass on Cavcrafts number for them to call and annoy him about it.

I do have rear arches which came with the car . https://youtu.be/Cf5d8amCctE

Tyres were ancient but the tread was like new, the wheels had been painted at some point and have a small amount of rust coming through. It did actually have new sills fitted but they were welded over the top of the old ones. It's a pity the doors won't fit my blue chevette.

I had a couple off days off from working on this but was back at it today.

My rear inner arch arrived so I'll need to look into fitting it shortly. RJC_4896 by srblythe, on Flickr

It's just that exactly, I'm focused on getting this Chevette finished and don't have any time to commit to the Cavalier. Obviously if nobody buys it I'll get around to it eventually but at the moment I've been throwing lots of cash and time at the blue Chevette and getting rid of the Cavalier is one less thing to think about. Also I bought that gold 4 door Chevette auto which is pretty similar in style to the Cavalier so do I really need a Cavalier too? I'd love a Kadett front end for mine but could only find fiberglass ones online.

Yeah, it's worth it for the spares, I've stuck it on a couple of owners groups for breaking but the majority of people want the bits I'm keeping! I had it running yesterday and the engine sounds sweet so I'll be sticking that in the blue one along with the steering rack, headlights and carpet. I'm considering sticking the interior in too but it's in such a nice condition maybe someone will want to buy it for a decent amount or maybe not, who knows?

Is one heroic weldathon on the blue Chevette not enough?

It's a scrapper, I'm taking whatever decent bits I can and weighing it in. I bought it specifically to cut the front end off for the blue one.

I need to get my head examined!

I know of 7 within a 5 mile radius of my house but one of them is a Kadett.
