I Haven't built a model in I think 15 yrs of course I never stopped buying them the first one I want to finish is this 1974 Vega I purchased this as an already built kit I think at a Rhinebeck, NY car show back in the early 90's carefully took it all apart stripped all the paint with oven cleaner cut a cowl induction scoop off of a Camaro hood and molded into the Vega hood same thing with the rear spoiler been so long I can't remember where I got the engine and trans from I think AMT's 66 Nova anyway made a front engine mount , fuel filter, return spring and a dual feed carb line for the double pumper love these MPC Kit's I grew up in the 70's building these when my Dad was building real V-8 Vega's out in the garage

What are your paint intentions? I think it looks sooooo good right there! Real garage-rod, cobbled-together-with-care look.
