When I was a young lad my boyscout troop went to the Vega assembly plant in Lordstown Ohio. We watched the Vegas being loaded in the train cars. The Vegas were produced with special batteries that kept them from leaking when the cars were turned up on their nose. I miss my '73 Vega GT.

Yep, when the Vega came out, GM was pretty proud of how they had designed to to be shipped like that! I had forgotten that little piece of automotive history! Thanks for posting it up.My Dad bought one, it really was a poor attempt at an economy car! Huge center tunnel, poor performance and really not all the dependable. It was an early death knell for GM on their long long long slide to failure!Sad.Dave
