Vehicle description
Due to medical issues I have put up for auction a very rare 1975 Cosworth Vega #1605 with just under 76,000 miles. I purchased it several years ago, and was told it had not been driven since 1995, almost 20 years. I refurbished the fuel system (had the tank sending unit rebuilt a new low pressure fuel pump, a new high pressure fuel pump and all of the fuel lines were replaced), the brakes and got it running in no time. All of the gauges except the clock work. I have taken it to car shows as a barn find and it attracts more attention than you would image. Most people tell me they had only heard of the Cosworth Vega or seen it in a magazine, but never seen one in person. It has the tilt out quarter windows, working rear window defroster, positraction rear end, AM/FM radio, period correct after market steering wheel (original included), it has some rust in drivers floor and in the lower corners of the doors (I wire brushed the areas and painted them with POR 15 to hold off the rust until I could get to fixing it), interior needs carpet and the drivers seat needs to be redone as it has a bad spot, also I removed the tilt feature from the drivers seat as it was broken. Runs and drives nice with original Fuel Injection, but transmission needs to be rebuilt as it grinds a little going into second gear when its cold, but it comes with a rebuilt transmission. I think it was tapped in the left rear in the 80s and fixed. Over all a great little car. I parted out a complete running and driving Cosworth Vega with carbs (already sold) and have 90% of the parts that are included in the sale. I will not sell the parts separately. The parts include, doors, fenders, quarter panels, rear panel, rear hatch, headlight buckets and doors, tail lights, side market lights, shifter, parking brake, console tray, 2 extra sets of wheels, most of the suspension, 1 extra engine that was running when pulled (see picture red cam cover) and 1 for parts, most of two fuel injection systems (plus extra computer), both bumpers, complete extra white interior less carpet in fair shape, T50 5 speed, extra posi rear end, all glass but the windshield, 3 drive shafts, I saved most of the original bolts. If you want more pictures than what is here let me know.
