Looks good Joe , My Father keeps his Cavalier in one of them garages (similar design) and he still has to get a full car cover as the amount of rubbish that falls of the roof is unberlivable!

All I could find, it's a bonnet badge but I'm sure you could plonk it on the grill!

New Power
ok, so i started the conversion today but jinxed myself by saying that i could do it in a day:(
the old engine came out very straight forward but i had trouble getting the new one in as i damaged the splines on the clutch plate so that threw me back a bit so i didnt get as much done as i wanted.
so i got the engine mounted to the gearbox, but the next step is to try and get the driver side mount to fit. going to need to grind a bit and drill some new holes.

You need to remove the spreader plate and re drill the actual mount under it.
