Not it: Hooniverse Weekend Edition – A Custom 3-Wheeler using the bones of a Cavalier | Hooniverse

Not it, either: Chevy Cavalier Trike Photo by SRX660 | Photobucket

Perhaps relevant: e-Parts Source Classifieds - Motorcycles and Parts - BUILD AN AWESOME CAVALIER TRIKE

Best-looking Fiero trike: Fiero trike - from West Michigan Burn Survivors Car Show - Pennock's Fiero Forum [not it]

I searched for "Cavalier three wheel motorcycle," then looked up the Cavalier, and searched for "xx Cavalier trike," inserting each model year, 88-94.

Well, that was boring!

Who never considered a similar project?

I occasionally see a car very similar to this driving around my home town. I never have been able to snap a picture of it, but I think it is a Sunfire.

The bug splats make it hard to tell, but that looks like it may be a motorcycle rear suspension. Motorcycle powered maybe?

The Sunfire(?) near me appears to be powered by the original drivetrain and sits lower in the back.

That swing arm may have a motorcycle-based design, but it doesn't seem to be motorcycle powered, at least from the angles of the picture it doesn't show a drive chain. Anyway, it wouldn't be impossible to use the original engine and mod the gearbox for chain-drive, and getting a large trunk in the front...

Think about that some more, because it's downright silly.

Spinners? Hmm. Interesting vehicle.

Often, Ecomodder.com shows up early in my search results, but looking at your thread, I did not see any of my search terms.

Thanks for sharing! Now, if only we actually had some information! :)

Spinners are downright silly...
