since i baught my 2000 Z24, black in color, spotless engine, and beat to shlt body lines.. and now that is has been just over a year owning the car, think she deserves the time line...
..july '04..
unfortunately, your gunna have to picture a black stock z24 all banged up and paint peeling from sun damage, etc..
..august '04..
fresh out the body shop.. one of my favorite looks.. (also dropped an exhuast)
..october '04..
then i got a hood an couple little things.. still broke from paint job
..nov-march '04-05..
put her away for most of the shltty weather and winter..
took her out for quick spins. it was unregistered/uninsured, got caught street racing a jetta vr6 that thought he could spank me right after i showed him my new HO manifold.. an yes, i smoked him by about 4 carlengths.. too bad the cop that pulled me over didnt understand
started fittin lip kit i waited 6 months for...
also purchased most of my toyota parts an system stuff too
..april '05..
just as i thought winter was over, decided to take a cruise wit the new ro_ja's i scored..
then by the time i got home it looked like this..
first show of the year in CT, awesome pic!! another fav.. went JDM YO! with my corners for this show lol..
then put her back away till HIN boston on april 30th.. also thru on the lip kit finally..
..may '05..
local tuner site BBQ.. hot roof shot..
had major knee reconstruction an couldnt drive for about a month so i decided to sell the ro_ja's, sell my touch screen, an couple small things all to get blown.. hehe
..june '05..
damn broke, couldnt afford wheels so i rattled the f(_)ckers for shlts an gigs.. looked pretty cool i thought, plus i was s/c anyways, didnt matter at that point..
..july '05..
a week before the bash i was scraping penny's to buy new wheels cuz i had to show up in style.. got to the bash, met huge amounts of awesome people ill never forget, drank beers, had a blast at the show only to end it by taking 1st place street class 00-05
on the 17 hour ride back..
then picked up a partial sponsorship with matt teske's company Ekset an sold out on the ambered corners..
BOOM! hehe..
..august '05..
hit up my most recent show, took 1st in cavalier/cobalt class
and today..
so there u have it and yes it is up for sale.. if ebay doesnt sell it, theres a couple others who showed interested, one local in my town is going to see if he can get a loan tomorroa so we'll see how it goes. i will miss the car, had sum damn good memories in it within this past year.. beat quite a few cars in it, held with sum i couldnt think i could hold with, and cursed at every single car that passed me after i hit the stupid 108 lol... its come a longggg way since i got it, never thought id bring this car to the level of attention i have in the last few months.. hate to sell it cuz i must say i designed one hell of an all around cavalier, but its an endless money pit and in the end, its still a cavi.. anyways, im done talking, just took me about an hour an a half to do this an find pictures lol.... later guys!

I love it! Its hard to sell a car that you've works so hard on. But I understand where you're comming from. Mine is going up for sale very soon I think, because like you said, at the end of the day, it is just a Cavalier. But you are right when you say you designed one hell of a Cavalier. The car will be missed, but it will for sure be remembered by so many.
Good luck with what you get next!

I dont know what to say but I've always loved this car! You did one of hell job to get to where it is right now. I know for sure you will make another car to look so good like you did to your Cavi.

So beautiful. Its a shame to see you selling a beautiful machine.
At the same time, i support your decision.
A car is a car, theres a million more out there.

how the F did you take this picture
best cavalier ever done up IMO... everything on that car is perfect and done the right way.. Props to you man and good luck on upcoming projects
if you lived near me, that car would of been sold already to me
other matt- one of my buddies in an suv took that pic..
ts- pioneer in my opinion makes the best head units hands down.. an they have the best tuning systems for both highs, mids, lows an subs

Best of luck selling it Marc, I mean it, as I can't wait to see your next piece of work!
thanks joe.. we'll def. have to meet up again, ill def take a cruise out to michigan for a weekend one of these days, hopefully ill have the new car by then
-marc
The more I look at it the more I wanna buy it! haha. It's good that you had fun doing it and are able to move on to new and better things. I'm considering doing the same thing but not going with another car this time. I hope your able to sell it for a good price because thats a hell of a cavalier and you did an awesome job on it bud! Can't wait to see what you got in line for the VW! Keep in touch man.
The car will be missed. It's definitely simple, yet badass. Loved seeing it, and meeting you, be sure to stick around. Lord knows there's no place like home
Good luck with everything buddy! I wish you the best! I myself have been contimplating selling the Z also and starting on something else... So I understand where you are coming from bro. Take care buddy
