Before the ionic stainless-steel sports car that bears his name, John DeLorean oversaw the creation of this car for sale, the Chevrolet Cosworth Vega.
Thanks to a fancy cylinder head and electronic fuel injection, power in the Cosworth version of the Vega got bumped to 110 horsepower.
On…
Not a cult classic because Vegas were crap. The Cosworth engine was pretty good until they detuned it so much.
Had a new 72. Loved how it drove, but it was rusting the day I brought it. Dealer had to fix it before I took it. Had I known just what a rustbucket that thing would turn out to be I would have passed on it.
Had to do engine rebuild at 50K miles due to no cylinder liners on an aluminum engine. Totally rusted away. Basically junk.
