Thanks. I have had good luck with this one. Seems to be less harsh and pretty tame compared to stories that I have heard. I run a TracLoc in the HenryJ and everybody said that would be bad too. 1100 hp and 25 years later it is doing finebugdewde wrote:Cool car/story. Watch that Detroit locker on the street. They can be a real pain on the street.
This isn't the guy from Canada is it?Chris Weaton (Vegamods) has fiberglass replacement valance panels for these cars...... as well as spoilers.
That post is pretty old, it does look like he is making at least the '71 front valance. He is listed as being in CA. That is goodcswrth1 Sat Oct 08, 2011 wrote:Here is a list of the fiberglass parts that I still have available.
71-77 Vega Hatchback rear spoiler
71-73 Vega front spoiler
74-77 Vega front lower valance panel
74-77 Vega front lower air deflector
74-77 Vega lower rear valance
74-77 Vega 3 piece front spoiler
75-76 Cosworth Vega timing cover
I still have all the molds for these items and they were all made out of epoxy resin to minimize shrinkage and keep the parts fitting right. There is a fellow H body enthusiast that comes in and lays up some parts as needed but I have some of all those items above in stock. I am somewhat new to this site so I am not sure if it is OK to list pricing on here but those are the parts that are still available. The carbon kevlar colors that I was doing are pretty much gone and the carbon fiber I might still be able to do but it has been pretty much discontinued.
As for the 71-73 front and rear lower valances, I have NOS parts that I have saved if I ever wanted to do the molds but out of respect for Dave Quarterman I never made molds because he made a good quality part that fit and I didn't want to compete with him. Last time I talked to him he was working for the guy that made his parts but couldn't get any of his own parts made. Not sure what the latest is.
I hope that helps clarify things.
Thanks, Chris Wheaton
Thank you It is off a late model Silverado. Trimmed the ends to fit. I am pleased that it worked as well as it does.waybad wrote:...what type of air dam is this and what did it come off of? looks perfect!!
