We need to have a contest where we all have two weeks to find and buy the nicest Chevrolet Chevette on planet earth. If anyone can come up with a running Pontiac T1000 points are double.
I feel like the time is right. Make it so.

I don't think I have that kind of money right now. I mean, who keeps $50 on hand?

I know right? Imagine my dismay when the only one on autotrader.com was over ten grand.
sm70- why not Duesenberg?

I found a clean Citation recently, but no Chevette.

Oh man, you are doing this at the wrong time. Me and a buddy were doing the evening commute home and during rush hour saw a creme colored Chevette that looked better than new. It was amazing. We both started freaking out and asking if the other one saw it.

Lol, it's a great feeling seeing one in the wild isn't it?

I've seen a ton because I live in Southern Ohio and they're one of my guilty pleasure cars. This one was insane though because It was the nicest non classic sports car or muscle car of it's age I had ever seen.

Seriously though, I think a better contest might be whoever can find and buy the cheapest one in still-running, registerable (is that a word?) condition. That might be fun.

Ha, I just thought of the prize. Whoever wins (!) gets the loser's (read:most expensive) Chevette.

Rush hour in downtown, you were lucky just to end up where you wanted. We followed as long as we could but I don't think they would have wanted to sell. Looked like a hipster chick or something, probably thought the car was ironic.

Define "nice"...
EDIT - apparently the only T1000 on Craigslist this evening. In my hometown, too!

It's glorious. The "will turn a lot of heads" claim by the seller falls right in line with his clain it's a "collector car". Who collects these things? I do however believe his cliam it's been stored most of it's life however given it's in MinnefuckingSNOWta where five year old cars rust through. The two tone doors vs. rest of car needs some splainin thought. Nice find!

Apparently not, there is one belonging to a frequent customer where I work that is in great condition. It is a 5door hatch, in red, with a manual, and a fairly nice sounding exhaust note.

If I read through the comments I wouldn't have shared the same one as you. Cool find nonetheless.

"will turn a lot of heads"
As in, "What the fuck was that?"

I'm late but I'm still sure that I have the winner. The rear tires were really really wide and I'm sure that they weren't just for show. This was mean looking sleeper.
