I think you waited about 30 years too late to start shopping for one of these cars. Didn't the Vega GT have a different engine than a "run of the mill" 4 cyl Vega? Good luck, anyway.

GT was the sport coupe, cosworth had the different engine

If you can't find a Vega GT how about a nice Pinto?
or better yet a Chevette (what a piece of sh*t they were).

Cosworth was the one I was thinking of. Hell, it's hard enough remembering the car back that many years ago, let alone which had which engine, lol. :rolleyes:

I had a G/F with a fairly new one, around 1972, I think. Never got to ride in that car at all. It was too easy to recognize, and we never knew where her hubby would be, or when! :boxingguy

Those were the best looking ones. Had a grill sorta like a Camaro, and the smaller bumpers. 74-up had the big ugly aluminum looking ones that were crash-rated.

Lynn, I spent a lot of time on Craigslit & Racing Junk.com. I could not find an extremly clean YUGO...Believe me, I tried.To no avail...Who would'nt give up the YOGU for a floating boat? YUGO...YOGU...Who's counting

That looks pretty clean, and sure brings back some memories. Now it needs a healthy small block under the hood.
