another 72 vega for pan

[peterpan]

after getting it lined up in my garage where the doors would open a shut nice
i got with my buddy that works in a body shop and we put it on the frame rack and discovered how bad the body was twisted from it being a drag car it at one time had a blown 350 in it that i know for sure
and the rear control arm mounts had been ripped out on bolth upper and lower ones very badly

after him allmost beating it into my head that this car was junk
i was dead set on saving this car but in the end it just was to far gone i will save the body for a possable future tube chasis drag car

i switched to my other parts car body and its allmost together
but other things have stoped me now read my other project thred for details on that

i will post current pics of it when i get a chance

WOW. Wicked stuff, Ray. I've always wondered what the inside of the rocker panel looked like in cross section.

That must be really frustrating man.

[peterpan]

i cant belive how thin the rocker are i'm glad i did the sub frame connectors and plan on doing them to my other h bodies



its for the better anyway i was holding on to the parts car body for no real reson until this project came up

i have done a little tinkering on it mostly getting the black interior in but its close to being a complete car again

i just found the drive line today but its snowing like crazy here and i hate the cold

[peterpan]

ok the plan has changed again

i had a 95 s-10 blazer with a good running 4.3/4l60e given to me
so i plan on putting that combo in this vega with air conditioning,cruise control and all the creature comforts that i can fit in it
