More to come, I haven't done much with this car yet. My father drives it mostly, but it is one of my cars. I purchased it for $400 in August 2016.

Just a few more photos from the first day I got Dana.

(Yes, yell and shout all you want, I clean engine bays with simple green.)

Rusty frame near rear wheels - PO said they couldn't pass inspection because of this, but I beg to differ as I just had it inspected with no problems whatsoever.

To get the radio out of a Cavalier you have to tear the whole dash apart.

I put a dash cover on it because of the good ol GM plastic that's busted on the dash.

Craigslist wheels from a Pontiac Grand Am that are going on her in the spring with new tires.

Had a shot wheel bearing so we replaced that.

Is this the Ecotec 2.2? If so, these things are bulletproof and can actually hold power decently well
No, it's the LN2 SOC 2200 SFI. The 2003 Cavalier/Sunfire has the 2.2 DOHC Ecotec (L61). Just one year newer and she'd have had it, haha. The LN2 is still a good little engine. I think the '02 LS Sport might have had the L61 but don't quote me on that...
