I had a vehicle like that once. It was 5 tone brown with holes for lightness.

Nah, we pull the shades down so we can't see them. Although, I do think the Cavalier was better than my brother's Ranger that was missing a front bumper for about a year...

Did some digging around on the car today, and greased the front end. Few notes... All ball joints have been replaced at some point and time. But, only one tie rod appears to be aftermarket. Gonna replace those this weekend and have my dad take it to the shop to get aligned next week.

Popped the "dinger" clip off the ignition tonight, but it still dings. Guess it isn't like the F-150s/F-250s.

2.73 gears = good MPGs, bad around town performance. Wish it was a LS...
