Re: Motion Division
I think only a few 454 Vegas were built. I was told that one guy bought a 350 Vega needed more power so brought it back and had 454 put in.
1974 Car Craft Mag road tested a 454 Motion Vega. The article was called "King Kong is Living on Long Island" subtitled ..."If the thought of a 454 Vega dosen't excite you, go get a do-it-yourself H-bomb kit" This article was not very politicly correct to Japanese people but back in 1974 people didn't worry about that sort of thing [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/flag.gif[/img]

Re: Motion Division
I wasn't aware Motion was involved with the VW's. What mods were they making to the engines? Webers, Dells? what sizes, 1776,1835? Has anyone got A motion VW? Remember the inch pincher,those little bugs sure do move..

Re: Motion Division
i thought motion only did G.M vehicles only,vw's ?.like i've said before the motion phase 3 vega's with the 454 was a land based cruise missle,that car was awesome.i remember back in the 70's reading about them in car craft & hotrod mags.if i were to build another car it would be a v8 vega ,i just wish i could find one they're getting very scarce [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/

Re: Motion Division
Chuck there is one up here, I saw it last week, I did not talk to the guy, it was pushed out in his front yard the motor was out of it, I passed on it when I saw he was wanting 1300 firm and it was showing some rust, it is not close to me but i have friend down that way that could get his number if you really wanted to pursue it. oh and it was a 74 or later car the big bumpers turned me off, didnt take much motor to make them fly!! Need to add This is a reg old Vega Not a Motion car,phew.
Bud.
