Had a windshield put in last Tuesday,put a new grille assembly in,tail lights ,the wheels were not my choice I bought some old ansen sprints..right bolt pattern but center was too small. It is a slant six so I went motor back on the exhaust with a quiet hemi replacement muffler.

Neighbors are just jealous no one will want a Chevy HHR when its 30 years old, or anytime for that matter. Anyway solid looking van. Some love and it'll be a badass ride. Whoever put that window in must've been cross eyed.

A good grill, early ram chrome bumpers and some wheels and this van is sweet as it is. I like how rough it is. Thankfully the window is in a door and not the body

Looks nice with the grill! Such easy changes and they make a huge difference.

Rock auto had it for $46..I got tail lamp lenses to for $12 each..the actual warehouse was 20 miles from me and got the stuff next day. I paid way to much for the vent windows, not a salvage yard in 120 mile radius that has any van parts for older vehicles..so eBay
