$250 IAA 1992 Chevy Cavalier Win! Wash and a 1hr Highway Drive! Will it Make it?

[@ChiralSpirals]

Can we just take a second to appriciate that a product named the "California immoblieizer" came from the great country of Canada. Fkn minnt👌👌👌

[@willoverkill]

lol I loved that too

[@barbershoppodcast]

We make more than zip ties and bias plies!

[@ChiralSpirals]

@@barbershoppodcast I know bud, you fuckers make a lot of usefull random shits.. like those smell good dryer squares and just about every form of point to point connector 3000s aka tape. Canada is one awesome neighbor.

[@tenmillionvolts]

"I've had a great idea. Before we head out for some ice fishing, let's stop California from going anywhere, eh?"

[@ianrs6310]

- 👌👌👌👌👌

[@jasonallesch6332]

Nice to see it getting some love finally. Yeah, I honestly wouldn’t sell it for awhile if at all. If you like it that much I would do the paint, and some of the interior (dash headliner and such) and just use it as a car for yourself. It would be a great content car throughout the process since nobody sees these anywhere anymore besides a junkyard

[@aslamb6489]

Jason AGREED 100%

[@quentinc1275]

I would definitely paint it amd try today much interior stuff as makes sense, I think everybody would love to see this thing given a new lease on life!

[@Gordo101978]

I love the Cavalier, it’s a nostalgia thing. It’d be awesome if you would find a good Corsica and a Beretta, that would be epic, and Randy I hate to say it, but that little ‘92 Cavalier is more reliable than your Vette 🥴🤷🏻‍♂️😆😂

[@dafirnz]

* cough * Beretta GTZ * cough *

[@ianrs6310]

3.1 tempest or corsica....memories come flooding

[@tmoz1228]

Yeah beretta gtz and corsica and maybe even a lumina z34.

[@jasonsheppard7877]

You are correct David..Yes sir

[@MonkyPocks01]

So excited for this car. Love these late 80's/early 90's gems.

[@animalcorvair]

they are tough cars,,all my kids have a cav

[@williamsinger4124]

@90s Car guy I bought a 90 RS wagon with the 3.1 roughly 5 months ago in SC to go with my 89 Z24 convertible. Wagon is maroon with tan interior. I'm thinking about a Z24 nose, modifying the ground effects etc to fit the wagon. I have a set that I can sacrifice lol

[@williamsinger4124]

@90s Car guy I'm in upstate NY. I have family in the south, as well as out west, so whenever I go visit, I make a point to get hard to find parts for my cavaliers, as well as my Beretta. I have 3 hoods, (one of em matches my wagon) 4 ground effects sets, 2 trunks etc. Those cars are essentially extinct up here so while some think I'm over doing it, well, at least I can rebuild my cars if I get in a wreck.

[@williamsinger4124]

@90s Car guy I could write a novel about the parts I have stashed, but, it's nice to meet another person with similar taste. Never know, I may need something from you in the future. I hope Randy contacts you, you probably have a 91-94 tan dash, headliner etc. I'm sure you would help him.

[@jordan5607]

For some reason, that car fascinates me!! Maybe due to me being a geezer, and remembering tons of these on the road. Cheap, dependable, transportation.

[@shanevaughan6980]

I love that the caviller is parked next to its younger sibling

[@brian5o]

I love the Cav next to the Cobalt SS!!!

[@ericabertagnoli5469]

That’s not a cobalt. Looks like a bmw

[@mikepro-ww5fg]

@Tyson Kobe nice scam u got goin there

[@Tillbilly]

That car actually shines up pretty good , I think it will actually sell , congratulations on the great deal for sure, btw great job on the editing , AAR stepping up his game

[@katary5297]

I never skip a minute when watching your videos! Keep it up Randy.

[@chriscc7148]

Randy, I'll always have a soft spot for cavs too. Still have mine that I got new when I started college in '01.

[@fasteddy917]

Money maker when the car sells? No, but what a content car. Those of us who remember when these cars were the back bone of grocery getter's and Mom mobiles and the first new car for many people this is watch worthy to the first degree and for the younger folks who didn't live in those times it will be a time capsule repair of a low mileage car. Great video as always. Thank you.

[@Ricamundo]

Great content Randy! I don't know why, but there's something very satisfying about watching old old but still charming little car getting it's first bath in years. :) Stay safe and well!

[@WrenchOnRebuilds]

Enjoyed the vid as always Randy! Looking forward to seeing the Cavalier again. It's a great old classic!

[@scliradalandsman8201]

Hi Randy!! You did a lot of hard work! I can’t wait to see the Cavalier go to the next level!! It has a lot of Potential.

[@takeomack2782]

Randy you ALWAYS make us happy! That’s why we watch you buddy! 😁❤️

[@richardkafka5625]

This video DID make me Happy! You'll never make a dollar on that Cavalier, but DAMN I love the content! Loving that car!!!! So glad to see it have a second chance. Great work Randy! Keep it up. I know you're busting your butt on all this and we, the true fans, appreciate the hell out of it! Cant wait for the next one!

[@sugarandpennythepooh1211]

Good video Randy! Thanks for the effort and time. I love your channel, have for many years now! Keep up the good work and stay safe! 😊❤️🙏 Joanne

[@kellyspeppers]

Saw you pull in on the back yard, looked very wet, a miracle you make it without getting stuck.

[@evalynkulp461]

I like the music. A heavenly choir lifting the cavalier to its destination.

[@knajar87]

whats the name of the song

[@c.j.alessi1794]

I wanna know to

[@brian5o]

This is why I love your channel, Randy!!!! Keep doin' what your doin'!

[@johnjansen2682]

If any car deserves the Maaco treatment.....

[@camhowe349]

John Jansen I totally agree! This car definitely deserves a maaco paint job like paint it the color it is now but just a fresh coat of paint!

[@BornToBeFamed]

Yep $500 special . Black

[@daveclarency7520]

Those were the good old days when them cavaliers lasted forever! It didn't miss a beat on that ride! I used to have a 1988 Chevy Corsica same color but it was a 2.8 5 speed. It was a rocket in the day! Loved it

[@Natures_Intentions]

That's awesome the car made the trip. You are right this weather is crazy. Stay happy healthy and also thank you so much for continuing to produce great content. Much appreciated.

[@bobluna9488]

I had the same car,a '92 VL 4 door.VL stood for value leader, the most basic model made.It had no mirror on the passenger door,had no A/C,just the basics.Drove it 6 years without a problem,had very comfortable seats!

[@keithhelmer5806]

Hey randy great video and the car looks great im happy it made it the whole way but keep up the great work and awesome content i watch all your videos i been a sub for a long time on the channel

[@robertpetty4149]

First new car I bought was a 92 cavalier..bare bones had a heater,ac and no radio also no floor mats! Loved that little car it drove forever.

[@cameronlovesevolve]

good shit randy! Im excited to watch you pick away at the Cavi!

[@LunarOutlawsGarage]

though your where a massive influence on why i started my channel and i was going to try doing the same kind of content i definitely thing i latched on to my real passion finding and bringing back barn finds. but that dosn't change the fact i really enjoy your content keep up the great work man

[@oncewaslost1982]

This car is so much cooler and way more unique than most of the "I bought the cheapest exotic yadayadayada" crap on many other KZbin channels right now. Love it. Can't wait to see you fix this up. It deserves it. Spend some KZbin money on it and make it super clean and nice again.

[@charliebruckman8661]

Brings me back when my buddy and i would hang out after school in his Cavalier (85) listening to VanHalen's 5150. Great memories.

[@zacharyjones1492]

Love seeing the older car's come back to life. Even if there not worth much

[@TheRev89]

I love those old style Cavaliers!

[@drewbenefield2001]

Yes it will make it to AARHQ!! Excellent content as always!! You have no idea how much I love this cavalier!!! Randy I think you need to keep this one! 😎🤣

[@advcomp2019]

The idle misfire could be an IAC(idle air control) valve or a TPS(throttle position sensor) in those older Cavaliers. I kinda remember my dad's 91 Cavalier doing that when he had it.

[@elmoomle4565]

I sold a ton of Chevy Cavaliers in the late '80s...big value option with a/c, abs, air bags, auto transmission for the same price as a base, 5 speed, non a/c, non abs, non airbag equipped Civic. Was super easy to 'close' customers with just that one statement. The low interest financing was a no brainer for young families needing a 'new' and roomy 2nd car. Nice memories and happy customers because they knew what they were buying and the price/terms were great. Enjoyed the vid, btw!!

[@johnmccallister1869]

Thankfully you arrived at HQ without any hiccups. I'm a very heavy set fella but if I could fit in that old Cavalier I'd be very happy to drive her. For my own peace of mind I believe I would've done a tune up and changed all the fluids before that little road trip as well as inspecting the brakes and most everything else. Show that ol' girl some love and I'm confident she'll be good to you in return. God bless y'all.

[@waynegouin939]

Hi Randy. Nice little cavalier. Deserves to be fixed up. A car that's affordable to own and operate. Nice video.

[@jimmyjimjims7483]

Absolutely LOVE that little thing, what a steal! 90's cars will run basically forever with proper maintenance

[@wallyrice6543]

New fan of your channel, my first car was a 1987 Chevy Cavalier, coupe, brown in color. I had for 5 years. Thanks for the memories

[@troywhite76]

Fix the headliner, replace the dash and then send it.

[@harleydude-xo8pu]

Randy are you on a spiritual enlightenment voyage with that music driving the Cavalier.

[@knajar87]

what song is that

[@garyschumacher9867]

Uberman refills has some of my favorite videos , love this old cavalier

[@georgewaugh3898]

I'm ready to see the video for the SS. That car brings back a lot of fun memories for me

[@kathy7107]

Hi Randy. I enjoy all your videos. Currently unemployed due to covid 19. Your videos give me a temporary break from reality. Can't even watch television because they are always breaking in with news and then bring you a governor's news conference. We are all healthy so far but hopefully we can get back to work soon because money is getting very tight. Anyway thanks for your videos. Stay safe.

[@chevyfan9853]

I love these style cavaliers nothing else like em at all and they are very reliable, I have an 87 cavalier, 87 Celebrity, 95 Corsica. Love these old chevys

[@LFCsince93]

Thumbs up for Randy and his questionable choices. Keep up the content brother

[@mr.niceguy3572]

It will be a great little car for somebody! Great content Randy as always!

[@willarundell4490]

Getting cabin fever here in Australia. Your videos help - thanks a lot.

[@TheSeanUhTron]

Slap some Back to Black on the bumpers and plastic trim. Worked great on my 04 CR-V with faded plastics.

[@JohnSmith-kr9zw]

New favorite KZbin channel!!! Thank you for the videos! I’m binge watching all of them

[@sahandk5537]

I can't stop watching your videos. Thank you!

[@william.that_kiddo]

I love that cavalier that car never died yet #longlivecavalier

[@OSCARSANABRIA4516]

I had 3 of tbise cavaliers and i loved all 3 .

[@nissan2829]

I know people talk a lot of trash about 90s GM cars, but they’re my absolute favorite era of cars, mainly because they were brand new when I was old enough to drive

[@derekrichardson762]

She is one happy clean throwback 92" Cavalier I remember seeing these all over back then ah memories I'd say keep her Randy!

[@jonathankent5898]

I would spray black truck bed liner on the trim and bumpers. A friend of mine did that with a Jeep Grand Cherokee. The paint on the body was almost the same shade of gold as your Cavalier. When he was done, it looked factory. It looked very good!

[@harrisonhunter7512]

Totally enjoy all the content randy we love the channel since the very start.Hope you and your family are safe in these hard times 👍

[@TylersNeighborhoodGarage]

LOL wow. I bought one of those as a repo when it was 5 years old and this car is as nice as that car was 23 years ago. I drove that Cavalier everywhere. The only problem it had was a head gasket starting to go. It was running fine when I traded it in on a Mustang.

[@frankm8533]

The heat gun on black plastic definitely works I just did my DD Honda CR-V and it worked great they almost look new

[@wd4246]

I like seeing you bringing old cars back to life.. Great content 👍🏻

[@Babyybooyy]

Have to say these videos on the Chevy cavalier have made me happy!!!

[@skyjammer]

The cleaning content is so satisfying to watch. Definitely an important part of the rebuild/resell process. Now, send that car for a $350 MAACO paint job!

[@ronvan1362]

Beautiful countryside where you live Randy. Wishes they still built cars like the Cavalier. We have freezing temps and a couple inches of snow in Northern Indiana. Take care and stay safe

[@brian5o]

I love the Cavalier, Randy. You need to hold on to that.... If nothing else, for the memories. She's a beaut!

[@tankman-ku5zc]

love you choice of music for the time lapses. the cavalier is a awesome little car. one of my friends had a green Corsica and it was one hell off a car. very reliable, always started and got him where he need to go. it was semi low mileage too, like 100k to 140k it did burn a quart of oil per gas tank fill. but oil is cheap and he always added oil to it. loved the car very nice and reliable. but sadly it got totaled in a hit and run. but then he got a 1999 Lincoln town car from his friend and he is driving that car now. miss that Corsica, i always liked that color of green.

[@philipa5990]

Worked for Delco engineering back in the 80's that brake booster master cylinder abs unit was made Bullitt proof like your copart tours

[@dasarge84]

wow this car brings me back man used to have a red one just like it but it had trim pieces behind the rear doors and the power windows and locks funny thing is for an econobox it was a very comfortable car and one of the very few chevys i actually liked sadly they are known to leak in the trunk thankfully yours is in awesome shape definitely worth saving this old but trusty car

[@Trance88]

I can't wait to see more of this Cavalier!! It's a real survivor! You just don't see this generation anywhere around here in Michigan. Hopefully it can get a new headliner and a new dashpad a the very least.

[@kevinvandevelde5169]

Warm I just had 4 inches of snow here. Good job guy. 👍

[@steveedwards1072]

I wrote about this 92 before but didn’t know about the at idle miss. We owned a 94(same exact everything), we encountered the same issue. IF IT TURNS OUT ITS NOT OLD GAS, pull the EGR valve(super easy) and see if carbon has it cracked open. Just trying to help based on personal experience on one. Great cars, nothing fancy but it does what it was built to do and does it very well. Have a good one.

[@ReneUrenaMoney]

I liked that you showed how to use simple green and a pressure washer to clean the engine bay.

[@joeyz2k]

Glad to see this car again and getting some love

[@LunarOutlawsGarage]

I really like this car it seems like it is an inexpensive fun project anyone could take on and be proud of man. I am sorry i am late again man, you where 100% correct making content every day is hard work. did you see the 1972 Plymouth Satellite Sebring I brought home the other day?

[@tenmillionvolts]

80s and 90s had some great body styles. It reminds me of the Mitsi Gallant shape. You should do it up over time. No rush. It can be one of your reliable runners when you need a chase car for Copart pickups. BTW, it's Autumn here in NZ so getting colder and wetter just like OK right now. We had a massive long hot summer so I'm not complaining

[@JoeyShelby78]

really enjoyed the video Randy! keep up the great work! appreciate your hard work sir!

[@donavina.9066]

I'd fix the interior before paint

[@Hypergreenjeepman]

Love that cobalt ss and it's going to snow here in maine tonight 5 inches stay safe all

[@billa2967]

I’m looking forward to seeing the Cobalt build. About 10 years ago I flew in to Tulsa on business, and rented a black Cobalt. I don’t know what motor it had, but it ran “like a scalded dog”! I have heard that they have problems, but it was a blast to drive, and is a very pretty little car.

[@larsmanson9577]

Great little car I've a few of them back in day and I still wish I had my 87 Z24 hatch back .

[@exlimey1417]

Man, knew that thing was nasty, but when you did the before and after on the trunk, WOW. Glad you're giving it some love.

[@Dave7160]

I love old first and second generation Cavaliers I liked your video

[@rjkdev]

Last weekend (South of Minneapolis) we went from 60 degrees Saturday afternoon, to having 8 inches of snow come down on Sunday! :-)

[@tony_25or6to4]

After spraying with Simple Green, use a brush or paint brush to loosen stuff up and you should get a foamer like what Weird Beard uses.

[@yamf6639]

Hey, It really came out looking good after washing of all that mildew and grime! Good times WILL come back very soon dude! Good luck

[@paulmullins4439]

Car looks a lot better always enjoy watching your videos keep up the hard work thanks for sharing

Great video Randy! keep the good work we never miss one of your episodes! stay safe

[@J_Twist_nader_alley_gigs]

Man I really miss the daily uploads lol. I got used to daily videos now I'm starving for them. That cavi is definitely a diamond in the rough. Stay safe my friend.

[@briankoundry3401]

Those Cavaliers are great cars nice to see it being brought back 👍🏻

[@chrislockwood1476]

i had a 91 coupe my first car loved it. miss it.

I'm happy you're working to fix her up. She deserves it 💖

[@stevenmendez7447]

I love the older vehicles. An idea though; I'm fairly new to the channel & I'd love to see a video on your camaro & maybe more on the tesla. I know the corvette can't be spoken of so...

[@coreyverrett8117]

I love the car my grandpa had a 93 it was Blue you don't see these anymore probably my favorite bodystyle cavalier

[@leoderosia9279]

The 89 to 05 cavs were really good cars ....my 05 runs great at 121k miles

[@taethadon7293]

Loving the time lapse Randy.

[@RachelColeman009]

I had a 1992 Cavalier coupe in Medium Quasar Blue metallic. It was the only car I ever had that I knew how to work on. When you got behind the wheel I got verklempt.

[@georgewaugh3898]

That engine bay cleaned right up. That is great

[@iskydivetoooo]

I refurbish Adcom GFA-565 amps, and use Simple Green to ultrasonically clean circuit boards. This thing does wonder and washes the acidic deposit of the failed capacitors. Simple Green has many uses. 🤗🤗🤗 I also had a 1991 Cavalier RS 3.1 V6. It's been my best car ever. Had it 17 years. Only brakes and mufflers + normal maintenance. Here in Quebec, rust kills our cars. My dashboard was still pristine, no cracks whatsoever. Headliner was still pristine, seats perfect condition. But the body seams were rusted through on the firewall... water was entering the car, and that was the end of it. Engine was still running perfectly. 😥 Wish I could buy a rust free RS/Z24 3.1 Cavalier. I would jump on it like a wolf on a pork chop. Mine went to the graveyard at 80000 miles (123000Km)

[@saadmasood4797]

timelapse was sick!

[@sixfigureswithtee]

Great video Man, job well done with that golden oldie..✌

[@computernostalgia6293]

I knew the cavalier would make it no problem. I have always loved old cavaliers.
