1979 Vauxhall Chevette 2Dr Saloon Rare Drift

Featured Replies

Decided it's time to part with my 79 Vauxhall Chevette MK1 2 door Saloom, selling due to work commitments giving me no time to work on it. I have owned it 2 years, it was originally a barn find, it's about 90% complete now.

I have sourced a weber carb and manifold which is attached to the car but needs fuel lines and few other things completing to get it running (just haven't had the time)

The bodywork on the car is in pretty good condition considering the car is over 30 years old, I have sanded the original paint,smoothed in dents etc and the car now sits in primer. The sills have been welded in past, the buyer will receive full replacement sill skins for both sides which I had purchased. The bonnet and boot lid have both been carbon wrapped and really suit the car. Doors are in good condition.

The car sits on a set of staggered Weller Steels 13x6 on the front and 13x7 on the rear and give really good stance

The interior has 2 Recaro seats on chevette rails, the driver side requires the tilt holding bracket welding to the floor. The carpet and headliner were both removed as they were beyond saving. It has a sparco steering wheel.

The car has no MOT and is currently sorn, will need to be trailered away as currently not running.

This is a MK1 2 door saloon and is very rare and since owning I have only seen one other for sale, this could easily be turned into a great show car and always receives great praise and brings back memories for a lot of people.

Price £1700ono

Willing to listen to cash plus parts offer

Looking for Rota Grids/Alecia/Shaktons.

Would also consider Part ex for an old school VW golf/Beetle or Caddy. Or a cool daily driver
