    Lady with dog thinking "You hoodlums are going straight to jail" then later while Vega is facing oncoming traffic and oil is being poured onto worn out tires for burnout purposes lady with dog drives by in her car lol "Don't look Fifi its those hoodlums again!" Thanks guys, fun video. We need another mini bike drive by before it starts snowing!

    Vega wagons have scarred me for life! I have a friend who got 180K miles out of one (with the original engine) and thought he could do it again. So he spent the next 10 yrs restoring another wagon while he drove his hot rod (a 47 Ford sedan) yr around in New England til he drove home one day and it fell off the frame. I credit him for inventing the Rat Rod, it was a beautiful, clean car and became affectionately called the Blue Blister after driven into the ground! Moral of the story: Don't spend too kuch time on a Vega! 😆 Go Penny's!!!

    A new black zip tie is a good idea! Don't want to have to spend too much since probably selling it anyways! (Less profit is not good) Maybe springs have rotted off the diff on the one side. Nice stripe package. When I was striping for a living, I would probably have got a couple hundred dollars for that job! Black hood good idea when driving in the sun to cut down the glare. The car is worth another $1000 for it! Make sure he knows I said the car has gone up in value in the last few hours! Lol! Nice water assisted burnout! Hope you got Landen's money before he saw the video! You guys have way too much fun!
