Junkyard Find: 1988 Chevrolet Nova Sedan

For reasons that trolly shouters on both extremes of the American politico-socio-automotive spectrum know to be the truth, the exact same workers at the Fremont Assembly plant who couldn’t hammer together a decent-quality Buick Regal or GMC C/K— no matter how many Mickey’s Big Mouths they guzzled in some South Hayward parking lot before their shifts— suddenly became capable of building rebadged Corollas that were every bit as good as the ones made by their Japanese counterparts, once the plant became NUMMI (nowadays they build Teslas there).

I know the automakers don't care - the warranty has long ended by the time the turbo goes Chernobyl, but doesn't look good for loyalty if engines keep frying.
