Re: Looking for opinions on emblem...

that woulda been a chevy metro... not geo metro. Yeah, they are one and the same, but GM killed the Geo nameplate somewhere in the late 90's

Re: Looking for opinions on emblem...

I think thjey may be off of cavaliers too, i remember pulling one of those off of a cavalier in a junkyard, GM used doublesided tape to stick it to the back of the car, i got sick of looking at my dell logo on my laptop, so i stuck that emblem over it, looked like chevy made laptops, i fooled a person or two for a second.
