Chevy Chevette

The Chevette isn’t the first car that comes to mind when you think of fun-to-drive performance, but it had a few special models. The Rally Sport is one such model that comes to mind, adorning the usual Chevy red and black paint scheme. Surprisingly the Chevette was also quite successful on the rally car circuit around the world. The small size of the car was fuel efficient and it proved to be successful for the brand (via The Truth About Cars).

The R/S models are a lot harder to come by, as most of the Chevette models have been rusted away for decades now. Nevertheless, you still find them in decent condition from time to time. Getting a piece of GM compact car history is something special, and the Chevette was an important piece of this. Even though the car seems insignificant now there was a time when it was very important.
