Default When was the last time you saw one of these

Old Chevette at a local car cruise tonight. Low mileage survivor. This was getting more attention than other cars.

They were junk.... I remember my friend's Mom had one and I remember riding in it as a kid and how much rattling and banging it would make in the interior compartment. Just felt like a cheap car...

Adjusting camber on them was unique.

My wife's grandmother had one when she passed a couple years ago. It had something like less than 30K (maybe low-low 20's?) and was always garage kept. A shame it was a Chevette and not something more desirable, lol.
