From the seller:
1972 Chevy Vega
fuel: gas
title status: clean
transmission: manual
Has S.B.C. V8 and Muncie4 speed, runs and drives, is on a non-op, I drive it around a little now and then to keep it up and running, the body is in very good condition with no body damage, the body and paint look great, the interior is pretty decent but as you can see the driver’s seat, and there’s a few cracks in the dash, this car has dual exhaust, the Vega GT was born a classic, resembling the Camaro back in ’70, the ’71 Vega were on some car lots in late ’70 for around $2300 new, the G.T. 2-door wagon is just a nice looking car, asking $11000 O.B.O., and I don’t want help selling this car, no emails,

Photo nimber 22 in that ad would have made an excellent "what am I"

Presumably it is in some way related to a 1972 Chevy Vega , but I have no idea what or why.
I'll take overpriced 1970s cars for $300
What is a Vega, Alex?
Hopefully the frame has some reinforcements. If not it will pick one front wheel under acceleration when the frame twists. They were actually nice looking cars, too bad they came equipped with biodegradeable engines…
I figured it out. It's extra parts for the vega thrown in a wheel barrow.
Thank you-
GT or Kamback? Recall?
Yes, no, maybe both or maybe neither depending on what you mean by Kammback (not Kamback BTW)
The wagon was branded as the Kammback , but was not technically a Kammback. The notchback and the hatchback on the other hand had actual Kammbacks .
"In mid-1971, Chevrolet introduced an optional GT package for hatchback and Kammback models, which included the RPO L11 two-barrel 140 engine, F41 handling option, special tires and trim." says Wikipedia.
All clear now?
