Thread: 75 vega project, bone stock.

Tweet

I finally got my Vega project! It came with no motor and trans , hood ,or heater unit, besides that its all there. It has some areas of surface rust on the body but the floor is all solid with the exception of the spare tire area and passenger foot well. The spare tire area has surface rust but not swiss cheese, a couple more years sitting and it would of been. I started to pull all the entirior last night and the floor is solid no major rust in the high stress areas. I pulled all the stock insulation out and found nothing has been CUT or repaired ,it seems to have never seen a major wreck or some idiot with a torch Ok now that the easy part is over ,getting the car, now for the next step.

Now my problem and question is , what set up could I run? I am planning to run 600 horses on nitrous in the 8th mile. Just building a full tube chassis looks like a great plan and leaves plenty of room for upgrades in power and other areas. But I would also like to get it on the track asap and play with it safely.What do you guys think?

I am looking to build some thing like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f5BwW6VwIbo .
