In For Sale/Wanted
I have decided to start to thin down my collection, and after long consideration I decided that this car would be one to go.  I have owned this car for 6 years and purchased the car from the original owner. Due to my arthritis it is getting more and more difficult to get in and get out of this car, and it pains me to sell it after wanting one since I first started reading about them in Motor Trend and Car and Driver in in 1973 and 74. This car was sitting in dry storage for it's entire life. I have the original bill of sale and build sheet. This is car 0718 out of the 3508 of total production in 1975 and 76., .The car has 79,000 miles and runs GREAT! I had come upon the aftermarket  Hutton Dual Weber Carburetor set-up, and replaced the original Electronic Fuel Injection set-up, I do have all of the original EFI parts and they will go with the car. Some of the paint is still original in areas but it has been touched up. It still has the original Delco spiral shocks on it which perform as the did when new. Since I have owned it I had the original rims restored, 5 new tires, new exhaust from the original factory stainless steel header back, new tie rod ends and center link, new fuel pump, new Delco clutch, new clutch cable, the close ratio 4 speed transmission was overhauled with new bearings and syncro rings,  new U joints were installed. original starter was rebuilt, new brakes, radio speaker was rebuilt, new hoses and radiator was boiled out. new Steele weatherstrip on the hatch and the doors, had a new headliner installed, and I know that there are many other items replaced that I did not mention. Car is very fast! Car is titled to me and is located on Long island New York. It turns heads everywhere we take it! I know that these two words were seldom mentioned in the same sentence 'solid' and ' Vega' but this is....  a solid vega.  I feel it is priced very reasonable at $14,000 for a car you start and drive anywhere tomorrow. THERE ARE NOT TOO MANY CARS THAT ONE CAN BUY IN THIS HOBBY THAT IS TURN KEY FOR UNDER $20K! This car is an attention getter and crowd gatherer when ever I take it out to drive or display. This is a great entry level car or a great car to compliment your collection.  This is all supported by a great national club of extremely knowledgeable fellow Cosworth enthusiasts. I must have well over 150 magazines from the COVA loaded with GREAT  tech articles, like it should be! The car comes with the original Bill of sale from Green Chevrolet in Monticello NY, Build Sheet, manuals and much more!
