Found this looking through some old Mags looking for some other articles tonight and thought I would post them since the Motion Vega was mentioned on the Yenko Forum. Also notice that Hory Chevy shows a Vega Wagon and that the Motion Vega Wagon that Joel had was a bit different. Can we say Luggage Rack!!!! Also notice that the one car has Motion Valve Covers and a Turbo on that 350. Now that baby must have really moved.

nice article!
The Vega with wire wheels and two hood tachs was a turbo 4 cyl factory show car. I think this was where the Yenko Turbo Vega came from. I remembered the name backward. I thought it was vegavette but that article says CorVega

I remember, in the mid seventies, seeing an orange Motion Super Vega running at Atco Raceway in NJ. I wish I knew what I know now, I don't think I even walked through the pits to look at the car.

<font color="blue">Notice how many different stripe combos there were.
Even the 'rear/side' treatment varied car to car.
I guess not having the vinyl like today made every car unique. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif </font>

I could be wrong on this one... but...

The Hory on the side of the Vega might be a Hory Chevrolet car out of Larchmont, NY. (???)

The article states " Bill Kolb out of Hory Chevrolet". I've never heard of that here on Long Island.
