1971 Vega LS1 Project
Posted: Wed Feb 18, 2009 5:48 pm
I think it's about time to start a project thread. I have been working on my 71 vega project for a couple of months.
The car was bought about a year ago. It has about 75000 km (47000 miles) and had the same owner since 1978. It was put in a garage by 1981 and sat there since. Even though it only had 10 years on the road it still has rust that needs to be taken care of (nothing severe).. No problem as I am used to it! I live in south Sweden with salted winter roads.
The plan is to build a light (and fast!) street car with good handling. The engine and T56 trans is on the way from phoenix along with a 8.5" 10 bolt rear and a lot of other goodies!
