2007 cobalt standard manual transmission. just bought it. runs ok but when moving it every few feet emits large thump BANG from front end. Sounds like frame mount, cv, transmission, and ideas ?? I got it from a insurance claim auction and no doubt has damage in from workings.

Sounds like you need to put it up on some ramps or a lift and see how badly something is messed up. A repeated noise usually indicates a rotating part.

Loose frame mount bolts, yikes. That's only like your entire front end.
