Q. What did the bride and groom say just before their nautical-themed wedding?
No, friends don’t let friends buy bi-turbos. If it needs nothing, why don’t you, Mr. Seller, keep driving it?
I’ll give you a pass on the IROC. But maybe reflect on why you want to barf irrational amounts of petrol out of the pipes of a glorified minivan so you can tap into its deep well of power a few times a year on a public road that can’t safely contain its over the top output.
My dad traded his ‘69 Chevelle SS for a ‘73 GT wagon when the gas crisis hit. I never forgave him for that. That damn Vega was practically a 2-stroke. I remember there being a case of oil in the back cargo area and most every fill up dad would have to get one out of the back...
Well, it’s been on CL for 22 days, so I bet you could get it for at least a grand or two under the asking price. But then you have to ask yourself, “Do I really want to do this? Should I stop at a thrift shop for some polyester pants? Are my old Neil Diamond LPs in the attic? Does owning this commit me to going to my…
What’s your hurry? Dump a bucket of salt water on it & it will be gone on soon enough, and you won’t have to stick around for accountability.
Oh my god I want it. It’s equal parts goofy and rad. I’m honestly considering driving up to DC this weekend.
There are a couple of reasons why it wouldn’t really work in the US. First and foremost is the sheer size of the US, it mostly works in the northeast since geographically things are close together. But say in Texas where I live, like it can take a fully DAY to drive across the state, and that’s at 70+ mph. But the…
The most interesting thing about this listing is it reminded me of the Vert-A-Pac rail cars GM had designed and built for shipping these.
The original years didn’t depreciate; they decomposed. This car is a survivor; I give it that. I was around in my twenties during that era. There was no love for these cars, they were appliances. Nothing unique, nothing groundbreaking, no performance, nothing to distinguish these cars. Not a collectible for me. NO…
Dad had a 73 Vega for a while in the late 70's. Low miles orange hatchback. It wasn’t bad but not great.
Yeah, those are probably “period—correct 1970s bad taste” flames, at least. I don’t care for the mods, though. My parents got a ‘77 Vega GT Kamback after I left for college. I thought it was awesome - a mini-Camaro wagon?! They didn’t have it long, though...
Probably the best Vega. Bad taste historically correct customization. Good condition, low miles. So wrong it’s right. NP.
The indicated redline on the tach is hilarious.
It’s a smaller version of the Amazing Race but with the racers picking from a deck at random and they have to do challenges to earn that train or bus ride. Not just plunk down the credit card from the producers.
Ranko, is that you?
California is trying this. They are going to now spend $128B for 177 miles of rail system. If we tried this approach here it would cost $9 27T Thanks more than a third of the entire United States GDP. Until you get politicians, grifters (but I repeat myself), kickbacks, and environmental studies out of the way, it’s…
Do you think good old Ranko will let you take it off of the lot for a PPI?
Good shit Torch!
