Exterior:
The factory black paint is excellent throughout with only minor crazing on the rear deck lid, typical of GM finishes from the 1970s. All original gold pencil striping is intact and sharp. The factory gold wheels are clean and correct. Body panels are laser-straight and completely rust-free. All the trim, chrome, and glass are in outstanding condition. This car has always been stored indoors and looks the part.

Interior:
Absolutely stunning. The original interior is showroom fresh, deluxe vinyl with cloth inserts, gold dash panel, and flawless door panels. The dash is perfect and features the original number plate. Every gauge, light, knob, and switch works properly. The factory radio plays, the horn and indicators function, and even the sun visor stickers are still in place. It smells clean, feels tight, and looks like stepping back into 1976.

Mechanical:
The numbers-matching 2.0L Cosworth Twin Cam engine with electronic fuel injection runs perfectly. It starts easily, idles smooth, and pulls well through all four gears. The original shocks are still installed, with a brand new set included in the trunk. The gearbox shifts clean, and the clutch and brakes feel confident. The entire drivetrain is original and unmodified.

Underside and Trunk:
The underside is clean, dry, and completely rust-free. Original floor pans, original hardware. The trunk includes the original jack, spare, and inflator canister. Also included is a box of original Cosworth Vega Owners Association materials, dealer paperwork, factory manuals, service records, and a mileage log handwritten by the original owner beginning at 162 miles.

Closing Statement:
You won't find another Cosworth Vega like this. It is a true survivor that belongs in a collection or museum. With just 14,000 original miles, all original finishes, and documentation from day one, this car is a rare and important piece of Chevrolet history. This car cost as much as a Corvette in 1976.
