Own
a modded Chevette?
Get in touch! I'd love to hear from anyone who has modified
a Chevette in any way. Send pictures if you can. If there's
enough interest I'll set up a new page with pictures and details
of other people's Chevettes. |

Help!
As you've
probably noticed, Project Chevette
is in it's early stages. At the moment I have what is basically a
very good rolling shell and another car which will eventually donate
it's engine and anything else I can find a use for. I'm trying to
make this a good car but at minimal cost so I'd appreciate some advice
with the following:
Engine/gearbox mounts:
If you've read the diary you'll know that I have a 2.0 Carlton which
will provide the engine for Project Chevette.
What I would like to know is; where can I get a pair of clubman engine
mounts at a reasonable price? Perhaps somebody out there has a pair
for sale? Also, is there some sort of mounting kit or adapter for
the Carlton 5-speed 'box? If anybody has any information regarding
how to mount the box, or where I can get the parts to do it I'd be
grateful.
Suspension/brakes:
I'd like to uprate both the brakes and suspension before I do the
engine conversion so any advice will be gratefully received. Ideally
I'd like to lower the car by about 30-40mm from standard and give
it a slightly firmer ride. I'd like the brakes to be much better
than standard. Again, if anyone has any spares for sale let me know.
