1987 Chevrolet Cavalier - GONE AWAYAbout This Vehicle:
Remnants of a piece of JBO history. This was the FIRST 4 cylinder j-body to hit 13's, the second to do it of all j-body's (Curtis Walker's V6 was first). Also former JBO Car of the Month, March 2002.
Best run of this beast is 13.92 seconds @ 97.4 mph in the 1/4 mile. 249 hp/310 ft-lbs at the crank.
No time for the car anymore. Moved on the other projects.
