whats a 74 vega wheel standing competion car worth? its a 74 vega body with fiberglass front clip and hood rear fiberglass deck . its a hatch back car with a 2X3 tube chassis it has four link with 9inch narowed with spool, 5.43 progears, and 31 spline axles. wheelie bars. tubbed. has goodyear 32X14.5X15 slicks and centerline 15X15 wheels rear and 15X3.5 front with front runners.

I guess I should have said I just got this in a trade and wondered if I got a good or bad deal I am not selling it nor am I advertising it for that purpose. Iam only trying to find out if its worth what I gave for it.

What did you give for it?

A good friend of mine just payed $12k for one just like it. It was a rolling chassis and came with all electronics and a powerglide.

about 7K

I would say $10k-$12k

not sure abuddie from my local club picked it up from a guys back yard where he had a for sale sign in it but he bought a 60 chevy from another club member so he had to sell the tempest so I bought it. I was with him when he got it it was just north of acron on a back road on the way to the swapmeet your talking about so he may have had it there.

nice score on the Vega

nice score on the Vega
thanks. I had a stock 4 popper one in high school but after the third head gasket replacement my adoptive parents scrapped it. I really wanted to v8 that thing but I was young and they let me drive there 81 camero RS 4speed car to school and my part time job. So I couldnt complain to much lol. The one I had in HS was a 77 sky blue wagon. Iam glade this guy was a pontiac freek lol. I think he knew once I saw the vega I wanted it lol:yes::hurray:

I would say that it was a good deal. I know you could sell the Vega for more than $1200.00

Jeff,

Somehow i missed this post, Probally while we were offline

The Vega is nice, Plus alot less work on you too and you can have fun with it at the track too. The Vega with a solid roller 327/350 will run well into the 10's, well in the 9's if you do it right

Being you got the gear, Build it to rev and use the gear. Go 327 or 350, Should be sweet either way
