Re: Harrell Street Vega
 

From my understanding of this car, it was a one-off. It was hurried together for a magazine article, and then dropped.

Don Hardy later used similar stuff, for his Vega "kits". Dick's Vega conversion was the prototype for this kit. Here is a pic of the advertisement Don Hardy used for his kits, sorry for the poor quality. I have been told Don Hardy made more than a few of these kits for sale to mail order customers.

Don't you just love V8 Vegas? There's something about those things that is just cool. I'd love to build one some day.

Re: Harrell Street Vega
 

I had pics of the Vega in question later being tubbed out and converted into a race car and run by an associate or friend of DH appr. 71-72 era. The paint job stayed the same.
Article was in one of the Superstock or Drag racing USA type mags.It was not in P/S but in one of the lesser classes like Modified productions etc.

Well, it looks like it was given a 400 SB. I wonder what the engine spec's were/are.

Ken, interesting ad. The Vega I did a few years ago (Motion look-alike) was built from a kit similar to what you pictured, including front spindles, headers, engine/trans mounts, and even came with that pro-stock type hood. I discarded the Hardy hood and used a Motion/L-88 hood instead.

Tom,

Sounds like your old vega was a lot of fun. What happened to it? What year was it? Those old Hardy hoods are a dime a dozen anyway, right? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif
