Owner: Daryl Bentley
Location: Rochester, NY., USA
Vehicle: 2002 Chevrolet Cavalier
Horsepower: 185
Purchased new in 2002 as a true project car, this Cavalier has evolved considerably over the past 10 years. Seeing its way through an accident that nearly totaled the vehicle in 2005, it has been transformed into what it is now. The concepts and modifications have all been done by Daryl with the help of a few great friends and family.
