Any negatives to consider when building a 383 Chevy vega for drag racing? I like the look, its pretty light, and theres a few in my area to look at buying pretty cheap.
Sounds nice but id prefer to build it myself. Plus i only have so much money a month to throw at this.if u might consider buying one and save a bunch of time and money??? i have a friend that has one for sale.. i think he's asking $12k for it..but i'd need to ask to make sure, if your interested.. it IS race ready and i think its in the 10 sec bracket.. 383 stroker, full caged and inspected. he taged it in maryland and sometimes drives it on the street.. trans brake and line lock. can't think of tranny or rear it has... like i said its ready to go now.. it's in delaware..

Pinto? Anything you had to do to a Vega you would have to also do to a Pinto bean. It's not "easier to work with".One light car that is much easier to work with has been mentioned- the Pinto.
Yeah, that ain't gonna happen.What became a standard joke in the shop was the articles about sub and tube in a weekend.
