3.8 and 5 speed from a Camaro. I like V6 swaps. This seems like the perfect application for a 3800. Now just needs more supercharger

Listed on ebay way out of my price range but I think it's cool.
That looks really clean! There's a guy near me selling a ratty Vega wagon with a 4.3 swap.
As much as I hate Vegas, that's pretty damned cool. My mother had the later Monza wagon with the 3.8 and it was pretty impressive.....except for the manual brakes.
I like Vegas for the simple reason they are not a Camaro
I like it, definitely would drive that. I think adding a turbo would be better

I had a Vega, hence my hatred for them and anything GM.
looks like a good engine combo for the car, but i couldn't help but notice the 5 lug wheels and wonder which method was taken to put them there: just drill the rotors and hubs and call it good, or do it right and source parts from later GM vehicles with bigger brakes and bearings and what not..
If it wasnt for the v6 id swear that car used too spend every saturday at muncie dragway. His was the same color combo but had a 305.
The Buy It Now price seemed a little steep, but ebay listing now has...
"This listing was ended by the seller because the item was lost or broken"
Not sure how you lose a car or damage it enough to make one void the auction (except for doing something very dumb...)
I suppose if it was a daily driver it could have been rear ended or something like that...
I want to build a boosted V6 Vega now.

Do it! 
From what I can see in the pictures it looks pretty good. Interesting combo.
It's really a shame Vegas were such a horrifying piece of crap, because they are quite pretty.
