Awesome!!!! I am beyond excited for your build!
Building The Cruzen2.0
Background:
My 2012 ECO MT has been named "Cruzen" so this is the build of "Cruzen2.0"
My ECO is worth too much to do all these modifications to it.
I WILL build the first(?) 2.0t 6MT CRUZE!
2014 Buick Verano Premium, 2.0T, 6MT, 17k miles, salvage- runs/drives, $3k (PURCHASED)
2012 Chevy Cruze LS, 1.8L, 6MT, 195k miles, bad clutch, $3k (PENDING AS OF 5/30/18)
The Buick was delivered today (5/30/18) and this it the first bit of prep so I could find out what replacement parts I needed to buy.
As Delivered

After removal of front crash bar and upper rad support (and hood)

Messed up rads. No leaks tho, AC still blows cold! Only part not usable or the same with the recipient Cruze is the main engine radiator

As of now the wheels haven't fallen off the project, but they did have to come off the car

JUNK!!!

The wheels I will be using from now on (including the final look) will be 17x7 5x115 from a 2012 Equinox with 225/50/r16 tires to look stock and be the same size as the factory Cruze ones while fitting the Buick hubs and not saying "BUICK" on them.
Something like this

Any of you wondering where I get it from...

This is my dads project that WILL be done in time for the woodward dream cruise.

It's a 1968 c10 that just arrived from Montana after months of sitting trapped in snow on a farm. It will receive a 700+hp 540 BBC and look just the way it does.
See, I got it from somewhere!
