Chevettes are only cool if they have a caddy 500 ci motor in them or put one of those falconer v-12 engines in and watch her go.

I heard that Hot Rod magazine built a quick Chevette, dropped a 454 in it or something, pretty crazy stuff.

Friend of mine had a light blue Chevette with a nice big block in it. I guess you would call the intake a calliope intake cause that's what it looked like sticking out of the hood lol. It was on the cover of a mag in the early 80's along with one other car. His shop backed up to my dad's shop in Orange County Ca. that guy had a lot of crazy toys hehe.
