Probably the best way would be to get a PHS report on it.

They had the same VIN letter as the Turbo cars.They had special decals (NASCAR of course).

Got one here. Motor and trans were gone so I went with a 462 and t-350. Also pulled the front clip and went with a '73 Formula front clip. I kept all the '81 stuff in case I ever found a '81 turbo drivetrain to set aside for it.

I just bought one for my wife, the car is soild and we need to put it back together, but I,m missing the front seats and have been trying to locate them, I have come acrossed a few that have been stripped and crushed and a few that have been smashed up,so I thinking these are going to be very rare in the furture.

i know of one that's sitting in the weeds, 301 has a knock and the body has some issues.

the guy won't sell it, one of those i'll do it someday things.


we had him talked into installing a tuned part driveline in it then he chickened out and sold the parts car for less than he had invested in it.
