    Chevy Chevette. This may have been one of the worst cars built, take minutes to get up to speed and over-rev cruising in the highway, but it was also a tank that lived through 6 people learning to drive a stick and probably close to two decades.

    It was also really easy to work on, but

    • when I replaced the springs I found them light enough to compress by hand
    • when my brother replaced the clutch he said it’s the only car he saw where the transmission was light enough to hold one handed while replacing
