Re: I bought an old Vega
I have Googled images. I stripped the paint off the trim tag and it is a 1973 body in white. It is hard to load pictures on this site. All I have are taken with my phone. The front suspension looks similar to pictures I found of Ronnie Manchesters. Car

Re: I bought an old Vega
If you show a picture of the actual car someone may recognize it and help you to track some history, which could lead to the Fabricator. Rear wheel openings, suspensions and housing brackets often can be indicators to narrow your search. MB

Re: I bought an old Vega
Pics of the car today would as stated be helpful.
Here is what Draglist says: SRD Racecars for all the Vega's they have listed for Ronnie Manchester. Also shows them all as 331c.i. and 4 speeds. Link to a bunch of Grumpy XI chassis pics from SRD below. Built to Grumpy specs they might have some similarity to your car that helps identify it. From the pictures something as simple as hood pin location or mounting holes for cowl gauges can be a start: https://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl...&iact=c&ictx=1 Last edited by Charlie A; 06-14-2017 at 04:21 PM. |
