Here's some pictures of my new ride, it's a 1975 Chevy Cosworth Vega. Will be getting a new paint job this year and I will get some hp out of that motor.

That was my first thought, very similar to the old Torrie :D

Intersting JR. Will sure stand out from the crowd. What's the plans for it?
Probably the first 4-cylinder on USM :) Intersting read (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chevrolet_Vega#Cosworth_Twin-Cam) on the Cosworth - Is there much more to be got out of them easily? Or thinking transplant like.. er..

You can see where Holden got their LX hatch and Gemini coupe designs from..
..or was this originally an Opel design and not a Chevrolet?
Nice Vega. ;)

i would like to keep the coswoth in it and get about 300 hp out of it,but big dollars,also looking at those lsx 454 $11000us,would be nice.i'll get it painted first.

Drop a escort cossie motor in there.. The Vega Cosworth were ok power back in its days but they are gutless in the current climate :)
