ok i need to go and get my cam but i cant lol the parents are sleeping! so ill get some pix tomorow!
what i am doing since there no cavy models is i took an ugly integra model i was modding (and did and ass job on it) and i am turning it into a nice car

well a copy of mine or close to what it is! And i am using a LOT ,a WHOLE LOT of body filler to shape the panels/ dash/interior and everything! i will even try to mod the honday engine to look like a 2.2 or ill get a dodge stealth V6 and make a 3400sfi turbo out of it

I thought you were building a Cavalier?

Not a fan of the Cavaliers, but I'd like to see what you come up with.

you might think about looking into a competition resins cavalier body. It is made for a drag car. but I'm sure that it would be a lot simpler to modify that body to stock proportions. than to completely rework that integra

no money to buy the cavalier body and i already done like a good bit of modding to the integra

Not really, saw one of those the other day, it would take as much work to make it right....even in drag form it looked awfully out of proportion etc.

Good luck on that Cavalier! I'm so mad that is no Cavalier/Sunfire... Revell shold stop doing Civic (3 and a CRX this november) and do one Street Force !!

Oh! One day, I saw on eBay a 1982 Cavalier Hatchback.... ugly, you don't have an idea! Since your in Quebec (moi aussi-Montréal), maybe you saw some Cavalier in the '80 hatchback but there were Z-24...

My parents bought 1 Sunbird ('70) and 3 Cavalier ('86-'89-'93)... The last one is for sale 500$ (someone interested? It's manual! But 4-doors...)

I'll watch the progress!!

yeah revell really should make a J-body if they dont want the chevy name on the box they just have o market it as the toyota cavalier and make an option to have a lhd in the kit!

Where the hell did you found that!?!

I want mine!!

I already know that Toyota made Cavalier but not in 1/24 scale!!

NemesisR34 · #12 09-01-2005, 05:02 PM

Wait a minute... this like a bit cheap: sticker for the headlights and rear lights... black windows...

Ahh.... that's sucks... I tought it had more details like AT LEAST an interior! No engine pass but still need an interior.

Is it a 1/24 scale?

I don't want mine now...

pre98zetec · #13 09-01-2005, 05:27 PM

it's 1/32nd scale IIRC
