Welcome to caliautobrokers Online Auctions. |
This is a nice little find....an original California 1972 Vega 2300 Kammback Wagon. Still bearing both of it's front and rear collectible "blue and yellow" license plates verifying it's California heritage since new.
The car was found sitting covered indoors for a number of years up until it was recently acquired. Prior to starting it we went through the fuel system...
-removed the old fuel and tank
-cleaned out tank
-treated/resealed and reinstalled
The end result was a superb and clean running Vega...
The engine starts right up, sounds very healthy and runs extremely well. The clutch engages easily and shifting into all the gears in the 4 spd manual transmission is near effortless. The car brakes, steers and handles fine....its actually a pleasure to drive.....
It comes equipped with air conditioning however we didn't bother to test it and assume it will need to be serviced regardless.
-Nice wheels/hub caps/beauty rings and surprisingly the tires were in great shape and filled with air. There are no dry cracks or noticeable imperfections were present upon inspection....a true testament to the environment the car was stored in.
Cosmetically the car has been well preserved and is a 100% solid, rust free, California car. The doors undercarriage and frame are rock solid (rare). They don't come much better for being un-restored. The paint has a nice luster and great color! There are of course various nicks, chips, nicks, chips, scratches, hazing, fading, etc. Nothing you wouldn't expect for a 45 year old car. No accidents and all panel fitment is perfect....nice car! The overall appearance is outstanding and the car has a completely honest appeal.
-Shiny original chrome
-Rear plastic valance has a split in the plastic (see pics)
-Dome light is missing plastic cover
-The original radio turns on
-Everything else appears to be complete on the car with no missing parts other than what was mentioned.
The interior is in very nice condition for it's age.
-Nice seats
-Carpeting shows signs of use and fading
-Dash has some cracks, but solid overall
This is definitely not something you will find at your neighborhood used car lot. They don't exist in this condition, most of them are gone. This might be one of the few survivors available and quite possibly one of the best. This is a great car to drive as-is, restore to perfection or turn into a drag/funny car. Whichever you choose you cant go wrong with this lovely Vega Wagon. The new owner will be pleased. This is a NO RESERVE AUCTION so the high bidder will decide the price and be the new owner. Good luck and happy bidding!
