Some other cars I have owned. pic#1 the car on the left is the same one as on page 1+2

pic#2 my 1973 Vega was a 305 automatic. it looks like a 1972 but that is because I removed the front bumper spacer and installed 1972 bumper brackets.

pic#3 my 1972 GT was a 151 crossflow iron duke 4 cyl. w/ auto. I sold this one to my brother who destroyed it and gave it back.

pic#5 my 1968 Camaro 350 4 speed. one of those things you wish you never got rid of. I sold it about 17 years ago to my uncle who still owns it. this car is being totally restored right now.

This was our 1982 Cutlass Supreme. it had a sad 260 V8, but was still a good car.

This is our 1987 Cutlass Supreme Broughm, 5.0 307 V8 this is the most reliable car I've ever owned. I've had it 16 years and still runs great, with only an intake gasket being replaced. we gave this car to our son when we got the Mazda.

Here are some pics of my Hotwheels collection, I have about 7000 of them in this little room. most of the cars are packed away in boxes, and there are also some 1/25 scale car models in there too.

Im young, but i think a V8 in a vega is absolutley insane, and yours looks phenominal! Its a shame vega's are so hard to find/to find one that hasnt been completley pro-streeted or full on drag built. All i can say is awsome ride! (ps. love the ingenuity behind the camaro spindles instead of the conventional s10 ones)
