Interesting start to the article: "When you are a big company like General Motors and you have a big division like Chevrolet, you can afford to have your share of dogs--I mean, underdogs."? Actually quite entertaining.

A buddy of mine in college back in '81-82 had one of these; a '78 model 
notchback, gold metallic with tan interior, plain disc wheel covers--and 
a factory 305/automatic under the hood.  This was a true factory-built 
V8 Vega--a real sleeper too.  I'll have to ask him where it ended up.
