    That is a beautiful Vega! I had a 1974 GT like that as my first car, except ours was Starburst Bronze metallic. I still run the rebuilt engine from it in my '72 convertible Vega today! Can't beat that later-style HEI Distributor. Much more powerful and reliable than the original points and condenser type. Just imagine if they had continued making Vegas how advanced they would be today! The Cosworth was really ahead of its time!

    Back in 1974, when I was 15, my neighbor bought a new Vega GT. It was dark blue with white stripes. They are beautiful cars. I don't see any rust on that one.

    This is my dad's bride and joy next to his Buick skylark. He has taking very good care of it. Thank you for creating a video for him as I know he's thrilled to have others see his car.

    Wow, outstanding... what a survivor. So GM ‘70’s. The design and function is actually awesome. Of course the quality.... props to owner. I have fond memories of all those 70’s / 80’s Cars. we knew they were... ummm.... yeah. But this dude leaned in, nice!

    I have had many Vega cars. I still have one that I bought and stuck a V8 in back in 1982. My 74 is actually the Pontiac sister car the Astre. Mine is a GT and is incredibly rare.
  • @davidmurray1630
    Absolutely beautiful car! My first car was a 1971 Vega hatchback. Got me all the way through high school and college. These cars were a lot tougher than they get credit for. Wish I could find one in as good as shape as yours! Thanks for sharing!
  • @SteveD328
    Put a black interior and an automatic transmission in that and I had the exact same car. I sold mine in 1982, at the time it had 45,000 miles on it and I was in the process of putting it's 4th engine in it. It was a really fun car though.
  • @tommyyancy3902
    What a beautiful example! One that I would love to own as-is. It is so hard to find one that isn’t essentially a clapped out parts car, or a cut up race car. My first car in 1989 was a 1971 Vega notch back. such a fun car even though it was not fast, I still loved it.

    Excellent find! I've had several Vegas (2x72 GTs & 75 GT), a Monza (V8) and a 1976 Pontiac Astre stationwagon, that I put a V6 in. I'd love to come across something like you did. I hope you were able to buy it and will get it road worthy!
