raisin27 Posted September 25, 2023 Share 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nitro330 Posted September 27, 2023 Share 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! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobss396 Posted October 12, 2023 Share 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.
