What colour is that Jeff? Is it a factory colour or a custom blend.
KenIf there is a hard way to do something, I'll find it!
My other car is a Vega.

Looking forward to this build...My first car was a 72 vega I swapped in a 267 SBC. The joy of a 16year old!
Love to see more pics.

Factory color, but with PPG DBC we had to scan the color to come up with the formula.

This is another build I would love to do. I had a Candy apple Red 71 Vega Hatchback back in the 80's
Even though pretty much everything broke multiple times on that car I actually miss it.
