I get the slings and arrows every time I say this, but I had a Vega, and I loved it, it was one of the most fun little cars I ever owned.

Ducking and covering...

I can't help comparing the Vega to the Chevy II. Now there was an excellent small car. Available with a 327/350 it would embarrass many larger muscle cars. Compare the Chevy II/Nova to the Vega and you realize that a car is its engine, with none more wonderful than the SB Chevy.

We built one when I was in High school. 350 V8, primer gray panel wagon. We called it the elephant!
