Cool, I always liked the lines of the Vega wagon. That'd be a real sleeper with a warmed over Cosworth in it.

Bubba,

I think those rims are WAY WRONG!!!! for that car. Please remove then and box them up and ship them to:

Kento
Sunny Place
Orlando FL

Once recieved I will put them on a car that is better suited for that style rim.

Thank you for reading, I return you to your regularly scheduled thead.


Nice job so far Bubba.

Looks to me like one heck of a lot of sanding has been done to that nose.

I'm almost ashamed to admit it, but seeing how it's coming together, I kinda like the way it looks. You've done an excellent job at keeping the lines of the car intact.

Progress?

its definitely different, nothing extremely grotesque. I do like the concept, its alot of hard work as well and thats admirable. I cant wait to see it finished, I know I will like it, I already do, it just has to grow on yah a little bit

- Install louvers and paint them to match the rest of the car.
- lose the rear side windows and make it a "sedan delivery" style car. It would also leave room for some killer graphics. Imagine a side billboard "Bubba Joe's Go Fast Toys - Making Dreams come trus since 19XX". Cool!

from the work done so far the ignition can be driven directly from the rear water pump pulley on the exhaust cam using the mallory gimlerbelt dist. have checked all the ratios and it will turn a V8 dist at the right speed and is inexpesive 289.00 to do and for fuel you can use carb or fuel injection

this is the dist to use

Pete, you may see the green fiero 4.9 since I have now bought it from Bubbajoe. Hopefully we can convince him to attend a cruise with his new project and you will see his fine mechanical and body craftsmanship.
The green fiero is awesome, built completely by Bubbajoe. His latest creation is very innovative and unique.

edit p.s. I would like to see Her86GT I have been following your mods. Nice work!
