1971 Chevrolet Vega Panel Express review from North America
"If you check fluids (oil, coolant) weekly, a Vega can last as long as ANY car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Alternator, dome light door switch popped out.
General comments?
Car runs very good for its age and mileage.
Handling and ride are as good or better as anything made today (new shocks installed).
