mhub91 Posted February 26, 2016 Report Share Posted February 26, 2016 Went to friends house over the weekend and he told me there was a little Chevette thats been in the woods across the street from his house since he was a kid. Decided to go to take a look. Was amazed at how deep this thing was in the mud.... It's a shame that it couldn't be put to use with how straight it is... 4 Quote Link to comment
Lockleaf Posted February 26, 2016 Report Share Posted February 26, 2016 Dig it out, hose it off, fill engine bay with datsun parts, get abandoned title. Drive it. 1 Quote Link to comment

Draker Posted February 26, 2016 Report Share Posted February 26, 2016 That thing has obviously been underwater a few times in it's life. Quote Link to comment

No sir that is just some fine Washington patina, if it stays outside too long here it will be green. My aunt's totaled stratus has been sitting in my parents yard for over a decade with the back window blown out and it looks just like that ont the inside. Quote Link to comment

datzenmike Posted February 27, 2016 Report Share Posted February 27, 2016 Those wheel covers? or mags??? Quote Link to comment
Lonestar Posted February 27, 2016 Report Share Posted February 27, 2016 Those wheel covers? or mags??? Those would be mags wheels Mike. God lord, that poor car. My dad have two Chevette's, a two and four door. They were good little cars, got us from point A to B and the a/c's in them still worked...tho it took about an hour for it actual cool the dam car down on a summer day. Quote Link to comment

My aunt's totaled stratus has been sitting in my parents yard for over a decade with the back window blown out and it looks just like that ont the inside. "Washington Patina" (and the missing back window) explains the green mold growing on the dash, but it doesn't explain the inch plus of mud on the seats and on TOP of the air cleaner. That's got "Flood Zone" all over it. Wheels look like Vectors, but there's probably only half of each one left. 1 Quote Link to comment
mhub91 Posted February 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2016 ... Wheels look like Vectors, but there's probably only half of each one left. I think you're right... Although unknown of brand, but definitely turbine style wheels. Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted February 28, 2016 Report Share Posted February 28, 2016 Always wanted to get an early Chevette, swap on a Buick Opel front end and have myself an Opel Kadett hatch... ^_^ Probably easier to just import one from Europe though... :rofl: 2 Quote Link to comment
Lockleaf Posted February 28, 2016 Report Share Posted February 28, 2016 I did not realize that the chevette as the kadet were on the same chassis. That's cool. Quote Link to comment

It's astonishing how many different cars are on this chassis... :P https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GM_T_platform_(1973) 1 Quote Link to comment

NWOleman Posted March 4, 2016 Report Share Posted March 4, 2016 Damn that thing needs rescued! I've had at least 10 chevettes over the years and i love those lil bastards! They are tough as hell and super fun to mob around up in the hills! Quote Link to comment
snapp_hunter Posted March 20, 2016 Report Share Posted March 20, 2016 my dad was the worlds biggest fan of the chevette I think. He had more of those things than i could count growing up. i remember two specific instances where he made trades for them. once he traded a boat for one, and he also traded my moms VW Scirocco for one. she wasn't too happy about that haha. Ever since he passed away in 2009 I've considered finding a nice one and doing something heinous with the motor, maybe a 427, as a sort of tribute. there were some local guys that used to cram Cadillac 500's into these cars and dirt track them. heres a pic of a 427 in a chevette.
