This 1976 Cosworth Vega is ALL ORIGINAL, with some additions. Original drivetrain, paint, panels, interior and miles. Power brakes and a spoiler were added. With only 3,508 of these cars ever produced, they were an instant collector's item. Very rarely on the market, this car is a great investment. No rust and extremely solid. This one owner, southern California car is ready for restoration.
This Cosworth is still powered by it's original 2.0 Liter Twin Cam motor and 4 speed Saginaw transmission. This car was specifically designed and built to compete with the smaller, European cars of the 70's. Such as the BMW 2002 and the Alfa GTV.
Road Test magazine wrote, in its 1976 "Supercoupe Shootout"-"Alfa vs. Mazda vs. Lancia vs. Saab vs. Cosworth Vega-said: "The results are in, Read 'em and weep, all you foreign-is-better nuts, because right there at the top, and by a long way at that, is the Cosworth Vega. It had the fastest 0-60 time, the fastest quarter-mile time, and tied with the Saab for the shortest braking distance. The Cosworth is American, and a collector's item, and it came close, damn close to winning the whole thing."
