I traded a non running project for this running 77 Vega project that needed a little bit of work as far as the wiring went. I was going to make it a gasser/rat rod type street car, but it hasn't been titled since mid 80's. If i can get it going fro the street I still might work on that part, but for now it's just a drag project. Hoping to get it finished up and make some passes here shortly.
it's a 1977 Chevy Vega wagon, 350 conversion, th400 transmission with 3500 stall converter, Ford 8” rear end (baby 9”) with 28 spline axles, 4.11 gears, solid ladder bars. The 350 is bored .060 over, has 650 double pumper carb, edelbrock performer rpm intake with 1” spacer, 72cc iron heads, .488/.510 cam (EDL-7102), 45gpm electric water pump, dual electric fans, Accel billet distributor, battery mounted in rear compartment, aluminum fuel cell in rear, rewired with new fuse box, relays, main disconnect switch, emergency cut off by steering wheel, tach with shift light, 2-5/8 mechanical oil pressure/water temp/volt white face gauges, all new switches, B&M shifter, sub-frame support bars welded to roll cage, clearance for 29-29” x 10-11” slicks, fiberglass hood with scoop, solid mounted motor with frame and roll bar supports.
The previous owner had a lot of the parts just no time to work with them, I rewired everything, put the battery in the rear, did some carb work to it, installed the new water pump, new fans, few other little odds and ends and it was drivable again!
