Hi Everyone! iam very excited to see my chrome
rollbar,it finally made it to seattle.I have had one
before,and i think it is trick,and also very rare :) Its the
newest addition to my v8 vega project.I should be
installing it today hopefully.It should stiffens my body a
bit, and it will look awesome gleaming away inside.I
will add some pics as soon as its mounted. Karl :)

karl,
do you mind me asking where did you find
one? this is hooker part # 18602 for an 71-75 vega,
right?
i ordered one from summit in january, and they kept
pushing the ship date back.
about 4 weeks ago summit
told me they were no longer
available.

thanks,

Jon

Hi Jon, first of all, i really like your
car...way cool..trick paint, nice engine...its all good!
Keep up the good work, and the kleen detail..i like
it...I bought my chrome vega rollbar from e bay, i
couldn't believe it was for sale.I had one about a decade
ago, and remembered how flashy it looked, along with
the dual red fire extinguishers..it looked
sweet,......My bid was 149.00 ,and shipping, which i thought was
a killer deal.I was amazed that no one else bid on
it.It is brand new,and it is the part you mentioned.If
i see or hear of another, ill be sure to let you
know.Illl add you to a parts finder list.Oh Yea..by the
way, how much was summitt asking for one of these roll
bars anyways?...just wondering..Please let me know,
and keep in touch...My vega is coming along.One day
it will be the dream vega, that i always
visioned...I have had about a dozen, and simply love them. See
ya Karl :) (addicted v8 vega dude).And of course my
Monza Mirage ..hehehehe

Hey Jon,

There's one of those roll bars on ebay now. I've seen quite a few of them, so I think this guys got a couple. Opening bid is 149.00.

karl,
thanks for the compliments!

i
have seen the roll bars on ebay, but they're for a
76-77, and mine is a 72.
hooker's website
listed:
#18602 71-75 vega (hatchback & wagon only)
#18605
76-77 vega (hatchback only)

does anyone know
what the floorpan difference is (in the areas where
the rollbar bolts up) between the early & late vegas,
and can confirm for sure that the part #18605 will
fit in an early vega?

summit wanted $356.95
plus $6.95
shipping.

thanks,
Jon

wow- a chrome roll bar would look great. Is it a 4 point or 6 or 8?
I'd like to get one but if they're discontinued then I guess a regular one would work.
later
