'73 Vega GT, amazingly nice time capsule

[mssl72]

Yep, I'm with Tony on slipping a small bock in it. I've always wanted a V8 Vega GT. There was a guy that worked for my Dad back in the early 70s that had a orange/white stripe Vega GT. Not a V8, but I always liked the mini Camaro look and wanted one.

Slip an LS and a 5 speed into it. Narrowed 12 bolt and all stock appearing on the outside.

Had a new 71 first car thought about putting a v8 in it then traded it in on a 69 34 dart

Do the SBC, and detail the orig engine on a stand in the garage for cars and coffee eye candy

Talk about a sign of the times, look at the interest rate on the purchase order, Holy cow

GMAC took good care of me in 1979, my rate was 11 3/4 lol.

May 1989,I bought a brand new 5.7 liter IROC camaro,while a 2.9% GMAC interest rate was being advertised in the Dealerships window.
My local Bank was paying me 6% interest on my Savings account then too,so I financed the IROC through GMAC,to make 3.1% on the 18K I had for it in the Bank.

Wow! Sold for $18,100. Anyone here get it?

It was a cool time capsule but I can't imagine paying that amount for a Vega...
