Used 1971 Chevrolet Vega for Sale near Wichita, KS

My very first and favorite car, it just looked fast standing still. I bought it not knowing how to drive a standard, but I learned on the test drive, true story. I rented a storage garage so as not to show my parents...they thought v8's weren't necessary. I must have put it together and taken it apart several times, upgrading after each breakage, to get it right. In hindsight it screamed "look at me" but, at the time I just loved to drive the hell out of it! I once launched so hard that the passenger seat complete with occupant ended up jambed in the hatch area. Too much fun.

Never buy a GM car in the first model year. The engine block went in less than 50,000 miles, but it handled great for the times.

Great little car, want to upgrade the drive train this year. This one was a 1 owner california car, very little rust, it was not registered since 1980 Original blue california plates, have the original build sheet, manuals, etc. Want to upgrade the drive train to a v6, or v8 6 speed manual.

motor was bad... I had HUGE plans for this car! An accident when I was eighteen kind of screwed that up... Oh well... I'll live! It was a wagon, I was going to panel in the back windows and drop in a 350 and ALOT more!

This is my Dads toy. Some day soon, it will be what he wanted it to be.
