    I guessed the car right off the bat..the chevy Vega. I got my DL at 16 yrs old in 1972. The chevy Vega and here in Canada the Pontiac Astra. The Vega coup, hatchback GT and the wagon. I used to wash cars on the weekend at a car rental company and they had lots of them. I couldvtell you every colour they came in.
    My older Girlfriend with full time job had a brand new silver GT Vega hatchback with black stripes and manual transmission. It would scat... you are right these cars like all the cars in the 70s would rust out in 5 years.

    That Tru Fuel stuff might be junk. If you haven't seen her video, Chickanic talks about her bad experiences with it.

    I'm really torn about this. This Vega is an amazing find, and I hope to be the lucky new owner, but I want to call this guy names for his cruel and shallow labeling of this wonderful car.

      😂😂😂 I was in diapers when the Vega was labeled worst car ever made. Wasn’t me that said it. I’m actually quite fond of it.

    Chev Vega, I stole a 4 spd outta one & bolted it up to a 250. It flew until a guy skidded into a pole. I slit a hockey puck down the middle as a tranny mount!
