An LT-1 (1970 version) and a four-speed in a Vega would be a really fun car!

'

Anyone recognize/know anything of the other Vega in the Harrell Grand Opening pic w/ wide roof stripes...L88-427 Plate?
It'd be cool if the subject Harrel Vega exists, likely Gibb sourced as the Nova in the one linked thread if NCRS result possible?

Car Craft had a article on the 454 Motion Vega , it said on magazine Cover -
“ King Kong is Alive & living on Staten Island”

I have that article also. I remember it saying with street tires, it would simply smoulder the tires to the carcass but when you added a small set of slicks, the car would carry the front wheels through a good portion of 1st & 2nd gear...Joe
