I remeber reading one of those magazine retrospectives (Life Magazine?) on the 70s and they had 1/2 to whole page mini-stories on all kinds of things from the 70s. When it came to the Chevy Vega, all they said was something like "There's something disconcerting about a car that rusts on the showroom floor".....

Ah, memories. My mom had a 1971 Chevy Vega, NO AIR CONDITONING, with BLACK VINYL SEATS! So, on top of not being able to breathe in the summertime while we roasted, we frequently made involuntary stops in GM's brilliant early attempt at a compact.

My uncle had a Gremlin. It literally blew up on the New Jersey Turnpike.
