raisin27 Posted September 25, 2023 Posted September 25, 2023 Fresh off the bench. Still a few small details to work on but I took advantage of the weather to get a few outdoor shots of the Barry Setzer Vega. 14
Hemifever Posted September 26, 2023 Posted September 26, 2023 Good looking build, paint looks great and that engine compartment is awesome looking.
Nacho Z Posted September 26, 2023 Posted September 26, 2023 Fandamntastic!! That is just one good looking model!
Nitro330 Posted September 27, 2023 Posted September 27, 2023 Super cool Mike! Love the engine bay tin work and the window partially down is such a cool detail. Not surprised though, I saw your cars at the HMCA show a few weeks ago and they were all awesome too!
dragin70s Posted September 27, 2023 Posted September 27, 2023 Just beautiful! Great subjects and you did them justice. Thanks for sharing the great pics.
TonyK Posted September 28, 2023 Posted September 28, 2023 Always liked this car and you built a great looking replica.
bobss396 Posted September 28, 2023 Posted September 28, 2023 Very clean! Those Vegas are really tiny compared to Novas, etc.
Claude Thibodeau Posted September 29, 2023 Posted September 29, 2023 Hi Mike! Great build, the paint is slick, and the pictures make it look like the 1/1 car! Bravo. CT
raisin27 Posted October 9, 2023 Author Posted October 9, 2023 Thanks everyone for the comments. I took the Vega to the Great Lakes Challenge show over the weekend and it did pretty well. 3

bobss396 Posted October 12, 2023 Posted October 12, 2023 Nice going, always good to come home with the loot. I had worked at a race car shop around 1978 and one customer had a 454 powered Vega pro-street that actually ran on the street. It came to us pretty much done, for some odd reason the owner kept the stock-ish Vega front end. We built the structure to stiffen up the front of the car, used a lot of 1" square and 1.5" round tubing. That took the flex out of it.
John B. Posted October 13, 2023 Posted October 13, 2023 Very nice engine compartment work! Nice model!
Hmann68 Posted October 15, 2023 Posted October 15, 2023 Very very nice! Great detail and clean work ?
M W Elky Posted October 16, 2023 Posted October 16, 2023 Great level of detail it looks you really nailed the color,and the rolled down drivers window is a nice touch. Trophies are well earned.
Rattlecan Dan Posted October 18, 2023 Posted October 18, 2023 You deserve a trophy for THAT build. It's beautiful. Great photography adds to the realism and great look.
Sledsel Posted October 25, 2023 Posted October 25, 2023 Great looking Vega. I like the partially rolled down window. Very nice
paul alflen Posted October 25, 2023 Posted October 25, 2023 Raisin27, 1st picture looks like a real car! No wonder it won awards! Nice work!
