1997 Chevrolet Cavalier Z24 for sale, more pics/info inside

PLEASE NOTE: I do not care if you feel "mods don't add value", if KBB value is $x,xxx, etc.. Throw all that out the window, I'm motivated to sell, but not motivated to lose thousands of dollars doing so. I have a lot of time and money invested into this car, and it shows. Also would appreciate if nobody asks my reasoning, I do not need this to turn into a Phlatcav episode. I have things in my life that need doing and now this has become one of them. It's time to move on as I've been contemplating for a while now. CAR WILL NOT BE PARTED OUT!

Purchased in Nov. '06, and worked on every day throughout the winter. Have records/pics of all the bodywork/paint progress which was done by a local custom/restoration shop known for many amazing cars locally. Paint quality alone could sell this car. Not just the body was done, bumper supports etc. underneath have all been blasted/sealed w/epoxy primer & undercoating. No expense spared, over $4,000 in paint/bodywork ALONE, +engine mods, +suspension mods, +interior. Everything is done the RIGHT WAY! This isn't an eBay no name parts built car. Eibach Sportlines, strut housings, HO intake manifold, AEM CAI, all powdercoated professionally. Suspension is brand new with less than 1,000 miles on it. Konis have lifetime warranty. Entire interior has been replaced and updated, brand new GM carpet, '04 dash, '02 door LS Sport panels/backseat. Added features include factory trunk button, and center console aux. cig lighter. ENTIRE interior was replaced as previously it was a factory blue. Have pics documenting the above. Runs great, low mileage for a '97. Strong car, have driven it from SW Michigan to mid Ohio for the GM Tuner Bash with no issues what-so-ever! Many common maintenance issues also addressed. New rear main seal, while there we flushed tranny and refilled w/GM Synchromesh, also replaced both axle seals. New fuel filter, NGK plugs, strut mounts, just as basic/preventative maintenance. Oil flush performed when purchased,Mobil1 full synthetic ever since!

Joe your car is absolutely great. One of my favorites, and I hope you get what your asking......but how is someone going to get a loan for the car. I just checked, and my bank will not give me no more than 4 grand.........and they said it would have to be appraised to even get that. "36 Months or 24 Month loans" I have great credit so thats not the problem. I was really really thinking of buying it. I even called the GF, and asked her opinion. My cav is pretty much dead, and your cav was very nice when I saw it at the GM bash this year. I only wish I could get the money together for it.

I don't expect the bank to give anyone $7,500 for a '97 Cavalier Z24 with 94,000 miles. I can't base my asking price on an appraisal, as that factory '97 Cavalier Z24 they're appraising isn't my car.

Depending on credit/income best bet is going to be a personal loan, or I just have to hope someone has a nice stack of cash sitting around.

Well only a few of pay for the cars in a stack of cash, and I don't have one anymore. I wish I could come up with the money, but I know I can't even think about it with all I have going on... Good luck with the sale.

That 2.4 is not a 2000+ one is it?

NNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! I LOVE(D) YOUR CAR ((especially with the spoiler)) its kinda sad to see you selling, but you're an adult. I wish you the best of luck on the sale and future "projects"


bump for an awesome car!!

Even a personal loan with good credit would land me a higher interest rate, and not the 7500 you would like.

Even if i sold my Z24 and got say 1500 I couldn't afford it, but I wish I could.

i wish i had the cash laying around to buy your car, your build list is almost an exact match to what i would love to do with my 98Z and it would be great to have one already done. BUT, trying to build a new garage and just starting a new job i guess i'll have to piece mine together a little at a time. Good luck with the sale.

Best of luck selling it. If I had the cash I'd snatch it up in a second. Hope whoever gets it appreciates it.

Hey Joe, best of luck man! It's a shame all that hard work can't be further rewarded.

The real question remains: what you planning on getting as a replacement?
