FUNCTION CERTIFIED

Well this is a very special function certified. I know we have had domestics in the past, but this one is a classic example of making what you have work. This car fits the function theory to a T. It's not your typical car that you would fix up. Honda, Toyota, Nissan, but in fact a chevy cavalier. James' 97 z24 is not your average car. When you hear fixed up cavalier You dont realy know what to think, will it be stupid like some Midwestern teenagers fast and furious domestic wanna be, or will it be one of the most amazing home built all by hand cars you have seen in a while. We are going to go with the latter one. Big congrats to James for making this car a more then qualified candidate for being function certified. Enough with the words here is all the specs and pictures.enjoy!!!
