Got rid of the Vega I've had for at least 10 years last night. No engine or trans, cracked windshield and thrashed interior (all the good stuff went into the good one). My dad was probably doing backflips when he woke up this morning and it was gone. I've had it parked in his driveway for over a year, and before that I had a '76 Chevette in its place.
Here's the Vega on the trailer off to start its new life
Traded it to a couple brothers who needed something that would fit in their garage. Here's what I got for it- a '53 Pontiac Chieftain 4-dr, flathead 6, 3 on the tree, 6-volt electrics, makes the Vega look like a Ferarri by comparison
I'll post a link to the build thread for the Pontiac once I start one. It'll just be safety stuff this winter to get it on the road. Vega comes first- it still needs the '72 front end put on it, 6-speed installed, body and paint, plus interior work before spring. After that it's Pontiac time- 2-door conversion, chop the roof, shave the handles, 12v conversion, etc, etc...
