Chevrolet’s Vega received praise and accolades at its debut, including the 1971 Motor Trend Car of the Year Award. It proved to be a lightweight economical car with a versatile design. The Vega also became a popular option for hot rods and performance modifications as a V-8 could be shoe horned into the little car. Reportedly, this Vega has been driven 19,361 miles since its conversion. It now runs a 327 V-8 with a four-barrel carburetor, Edelbrock Performer intake, B&M shifter, automatic transmission, dual exhaust and an aluminum radiator. Many chrome components make the engine bay sparkle like a jewelry store. Performance is monitored via Sunpro gauges and the factory tachometer. Other enhancements include power disc brakes, Pioneer sound system, and 15-inch radial tires wrapped around U.S. polished mag wheels. This Vega is very clean and detailed throughout and has much to offer for the budget-minded enthusiast.
