1989 Cavalier Z24 Restoration Project

1989 Cavalier Z24 Restoration Project
An '89 Cavalier Z24 was my first car. I remember driving to the Columbus, Ohio dealership (Quality Chevrolet on Morse Road) on January 20, 1990 to pick it up. It was my first new car, when I was just a young 'un at 18 1/2 years old. Come on- of course I'm going to remember the exact date. The exact car is another question. My original Z24 lasted about 15 years. Although I tried to take good care of it- regular oil changes, rinsing the underside to remove winter salt, tire rotations, etc.- the car still bit the dust. It had been through a lot- a couple break-ins, as well as the final straw, some kid hitting it as it sat parked on the street. I had no idea that a little over 22 years since my first new car, that I'd have acquired another one. This one is a restoration project. I should've kept a video journal, but, like a kid in a candy store, I was eager to get things moving. I didn't want to slow myself down with video-ing and logging every detail. What you see in this video! is the nearly-complete restoration. Plenty had been done: a new paint job, a replacement engine, purchase of an original set of rims and center pieces (from the same seller who furnished the engine), and a number of other upgrades and replacement parts. The only real difference between this one and my original first car is that my first car was a hard top, it was maroon, and it had an analog instrument cluster. These three primary differences can be seen in the car in this video. I should also mention ...

Wild Horses - by Mick Jagger (1971)
Prior to its release on Sticky Fingers, Gram Parsons convinced Jagger and Richards to allow him to record "Wild Horses" with his band, The Flying Burrito Brothers. While the Rolling Stones had already laid the track to tape, the Burrito Brothers' version was actually the first to be released, appearing on their second album, Burrito Deluxe, in April 1970, one year before Sticky Fingers. Released as the second (US-only) single in June 1971, "Wild Horses" reached #28 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Although popular at the Rolling Stones' live shows, "Wild Horses" has only been released in a reworked version on the 1995 acoustic/live album Stripped. This version was released as a single in 1996. It has proven to be a popular cover song for other artists. It has been covered by The Flying Burrito Brothers, Garbage, The Sundays, The Cranberries, Elvis Costello, Neil Young, Old and in the Way, Leon Russell, Guns N' Roses, Johnny Goudie, Sarah McLachlan, Bush, Labelle, The Lovemong! ers with Chris Cornell, Robin Williamson, Jewel, Dave Matthews, Charlotte Martin, Chantal Kreviazuk, Molly Hatchet, Alicia Keys ft. Adam Levine, Tre Lux, Iron & Wine, Stone Sour, Honeytribe, Sheryl Crow, Deacon Blue, Summerhill, Elisa, Melanie Safka, Kitty Hudson, John Barrowman and Susan Boyle. The Sundays' version was used in a long-running television advertisement for Budweiser beer in the early 1990s, featuring slow-motion footage of galloping Clydesdale horses. The version was also featured in the ...
