You might have a problem finding a really shallow unit, especially wanting the touchscreen, DVD, GPS, etc. You could most definately get something from secret audio, which would have a tiny remote operating controller and you hide the main unit under the seat or in the trunk. You could try...

This is one sweet looking little car!:cool: Can't believe what you started with!:eek: I have one question, though, and this is not the first car I've seen it on-WHAT IS UP with those huge tall rear coils and the ginormous rear kickup on the chassis?![S Doesn't seem like you'd need 12-14" of...

WOW!!!:eek:[dr Thanks for sharing the pics...:cool: Man, but that worn looking red A.D. is what I got to sleep every night dreaming of.... and have since I was a teenager.:D Thanks for the new wallpaper!:D Regards, Shea:)

Dunno HOW I've missed seeing this one.[S Very, VERY cool old truck you and Dad are building.:cool:[;) Kudos for taking the steps to not only preserve family history, but making NEW family history as well.[cl Regards, Shea:)

The lots are FULL of 'em up here.... Can't seem to build 'em fast enough to keep up with the demand. (new "Camaros" that is).;) They build 'em about 6 blocks away from where I sit right now. Regards, Shea:)

Coostv, thanks for the pics, man! Gettin' my star (Vega, hee-hee) fix.:D Yeah, those things sure had some s**ty places to rust out... Forgot about those window channels...:( Anyway, keep up the good work!:cool:[;)[P Regards, Shea:)

Yep, a V-6 would work pretty darn good in one of these little fellas, too. Nice thing is, '74-'77's once you cut out the factory 4 cylinder mounting plates, the factory Monza mounts for any of the bigger motors will bolt in. I used those in my old car. Only other thing was to shove the stock...

Yep. I'd love another one, too. This time around, a 305 TBI, 700 r4, S10 spindles, axles and brakes for 5 lug, and subframe connectors.:) Dare to dream.:) BTW, the wagon version was called "Kammback.":D Used to be a bit of a "Vega Scholar" when I was a kid. What a geek I was!:D Still have the...

I'm 41 and would be quite happy if someone slipped a Chevy Advance Design pickup my way...:( It's nice to see your generousity. Too bad it wasn't appreciated.:( Regards, Shea:)

Once I got mine put together, I drove it about three times, then sold it... Those little P185 70 R 13's just weren't wide enough to handle 250-275 HP...:D Punching the throttle and kicking it down into passing gear @ low speeds resulted in one sideways little car.:eek: Ahh, the good ol' days.:D...

Uhhh.....WOW!!!!:eek::cool:[cl You 'da man, Bob! Regards, Shea:)

Makes me PUKE what people throw away! Idiots!:( OTOH, GREAT save, bro!:D Wheels, intake, carb and distributor and DRIVE IT!!!:D Regards, Shea:)

I'm definitely interested to see your progress as it comes along. Interesting machine.:cool: I've often thought of the "VW as a cab" plan, simply 'cause bugs seem to still be out there and somewhat cheap.:D Keep us posted, we love pics. [P Regards, Shea:)

You're going to have to do some cross-referencing with regards to inner and outer bearing sleeve and race measurements, as well as overall rotor diameter, thickness and center hub (where the studs go) height. It would have to be a mix and match of different manufacturer's pieces to make this...

Vega's ROCK!:cool: My first car was a '77 hatch, which got a 327 transplant after a few months of "quart-a-day" oil consumption.;) LOTS of stuff you can do with these-the internet is a blessing for lovers of obscure automobiles. A site I would suggest: www.h-body.org Keep us posted. I'd love...

NICE!!:cool: I really like the proportions, really take the slab-sided look out of it-gives it a more swoopy and curvaceous look!:cool Regards, Shea:)

I wonder if, perhaps, you might just have an issue with the timing chain tensioners in the F-150? It's been awhile since I worked @ the dealer, but I seem to recall, well, a recall on those... Tensioners would lose tension, chains got floppy, BINGO, NOISY!!! :( Not 100% sure on that, BTW...

Probably just be easier to run the entire package intact, straight out of the Ranger. Sorry, not sure about specifics on the Passive Anti Theft System, I was a "general grunt" and didn't get much into electrical back when I worked @ the dealership. Is this a SOHC 4.0? I remember they had a...

Poor condition?[S No offence, but come to Ontario. Seriously. $35k.... Maybe a bit high... Certainly not what I'd call a rotten pice of junk though. Should probably be restored, considering completeness and condition. Regards, Shea:)

Pullin' for ya! Keep good thoughts and get well!:) Regards, Shea:)
