Hmmm...
I wonder if GM crushed the Monza CutAway? Or... where that CutAway is today? Who owns it?

Using my Sherlock Holmes skills, this is my guess. Because it is being shipped with other non-Chevy cars, it is probably a used Vega, and knowing that the lower front valance was one of those things that were damaged early on in a Vega's life, it was probably replaced with a non-GT valance with amber lenses.

I noticed that and that the Freight Shaker COE had "Budds" on the front I don't remember those on trucks until the mid-eighties. So I came to the same conclusion! Harry

Rockford files featured a silver hatchback in just about every episode, must have been 1 of the crew's cars used for fill-in.

Are the wheels stock on the Vega wagon? If not , can you guess what they are? Did chevy make a 4 lug 14"? I like the look with the moon hubcaps.

Thanks,

Larry,

I am guessing that they are just the Base Vega rim with the Dog Dish cap with no Logo on it. And you can not see the holes in the rim due to the angle the picture was taken. So those would be the Base Model 13" rims on that wagon.
