grrrrregg!!, I did ask about that ad, and was assured by current owner the car was never owned or was in the hands of a broker from Utah.

I think it was a scammer ad from what I heard. Just from picture looks close to car, but not sure the current owner had a sheep farm?

Yet that ad exists on their page to this day.......

Thanks HFR for the info!!

Work begins on ebgine bay....

Got a OEM cowl seal from a PY F body guru, and did a little clean up on rubber the clips to give it a update.



Lots to learn on the 72 HO stuff, like vacuum routing and all the wiring too.

Decoded engine WM K091 485428 with vin match. J dated Heads, and intake correct. Alt not its a 55 amp think I need 37amp 927 for 12-15-71 build date.

What right on the preheater shroud on block? Black formed or the silver stealth edgy one.

That is a gorgeous car in an awesome color for sure. Congrats!

An OEM cowl seal??? I didn't know that unobtanium part still existed... nice!

Is there a source for these? I could use a couple!

Thanks for posting the great pictures too.

Looks great Mike. Might see you on Wed at the cruise as the blue car is up & running again. We'll see what the weather looks like...might drag a couple more PY guys along too, we'll see...

Quite a round-port collection you are building Mike! Congrats on the Formula. Now you have one to drive for each weekday. Need a Judge 'vert and a TA for the weekends! Then your wife will be happy
