I bought this for my son last fall and he didn't like it and is now driving a different car. I have no need for this and it is just sitting taking up space. It's a 1988 Chevy Cavalier Convertible Z-24 2.8 Liter with an Auto Transmission. Being a 1988, it can be registered as a classic in the state of Maine and doesn't need to take a sticker again, but it would no problem. It has about 153,000 miles on it and is in great condition for being 25 years old.
The Bad:
I will list everything I know is wrong with it.The car runs great and drives fine until the tranny heats up and then it slips. I use it now and then for short trips to the store and it does fine. I've been told it just needs to have the fluid and filter changed, but I don't know if that's all or not. It has a small 4 inch tear on the top, but does not leak as there are 2 layers to the top and the tear is only on the outer layer. The top currently isn't working. Not sure if it is the switch or pump. Other than that, it has usual rust here and there but not excessive, Paint is chipped on front hood (see Pic) and has other minor blemishes. The rear wheel wells have the worst rust but can be repaired. Remember, It's a 25 year old car.
The Good:
Lot's of new stuff, Brakes, Tires, Gas Tank, Pump, and Lines. Interior is in great condition for the age although it does have a cassette player (kids, ask your parents what a cassette is) :)

GM Recalling 370,000 Trucks For Fire Risk
Mon, Jan 13 2014DETROIT (AP) - General Motors is recalling 370,000 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra pickups from the 2014 model year to fix software that could cause the exhaust components to overheat and start a fire. The recall includes 303,000 trucks in the U.S. and 67,000 in Canada and Mexico. All of the trucks involved have 4.3-liter or 5.3-liter engines. GM said eight fires have been reported, but no injuries. One garage was damaged, the company said. All of the incidents occurred in cold weather. The company is asking customers not to leave their trucks idling unattended. GM dealers will reprogram the software for free. The company will inform owners starting Jan. 16. The major recall announcement, which came on Saturday, marred the Silverado's winning of the 2014 North American Truck of the Year Award at the Detroit Auto Show on Monday.

GM cutting production at two plants
Thu, Feb 26 2015General Motors is continuing to adjust to excess supply of some of its brands' models. To get production more in line with the vehicles' actual demand, the automotive giant is idling two of its factories in North America in the coming months. The Orion Assembly plant is going to be down from March 9-13, according to an anonymous plant worker and another insider speaking to Automotive News. The factory builds the Chevrolet Sonic and Buick Verano, but there are plenty of both models sitting on dealer lots, including 216 days worth of Sonics, according to AN. The factory already had two idle periods announced to reduce the excess. In addition, downtime is scheduled at GM's "Flex" line at the Oshawa, Ontario, Canada, plant from April 13-17. This affects supply of the Chevrolet Camaro, Impala, Buick Regal and Cadillac XTS. Among them, the automotive giant has the largest supply of Regals ready for dealers with 213 days worth of them, according to AN. The future for the whole Oshawa factory is cloudy in general, though. There are rumors that it could close entirely in the future because the Camaro is leaving and the Regal and XTS might not last much longer than 2017. The Canadian government and the labor union there intend to put up a fight, though.
