Bill: I remember a guy that sold his house in the city, bought a lot near my farm about 60 miles from his work place. He then bought a new Vega for the comute to work. He bought 3 of them in two years, didn't give up easily. I think it was a 76 and two 77s or viceversa. I remember his wife wouldn't go anywhere with him. Every time they went out together it was her car that got used. Finally in 78 he gave up on the Vegas. He was still rather brave, buying the first 5.7 Olds conversion diesel in a pickup, sold in our area. GM replaced the engine in that once, but he must have clocked a half million miles in that Chevy pickup. If I recall correctly he replaced it with a Ford 6.9 about 87 or 88.

I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
