Welcome mate

Sorry to hear about your illness - hope all is well now.

Congrats on the car. Great car in the day, I had one (okay a few...)

Parts are still available but you’ll have to search for them, often high and low. For cav turbo it’s even harder. I’m restoring my cav turbo...

Hope to see some pictures soon and good luck mate. Hold on to the memories mate & enjoy.

Welcome to the forum. :wave
Hopefully the cancer is behind you.

Looking forward to see the pictures of the progress as you refurbish / rebuild your family heirloom Cavalier.

Hello and welcome to our forum.

Even though it sounds like you've gone through some tough times, hopefully now it's positive progress forward, gives you something huge to focus on.

I wish you good luck with the project, and you'll be able to find parts here and advice if you need it.

Am I a light sleeper or a heavy sleeper? Well that depends on how much I've had to drink...

Nop sorry - try the breakers ... there’s loads dotted around the country. Perhaps check before purchase. Don’t throw the old away until you’ve taken off the boot locking unit... you may also see code label

Also worth checking what else you may need..
