Pics of Dates/Markings 1973 Formula
Maybe this is "same old, same old" to some of you. But, I am really excited to see all the dates and factory markings on some of the parts as I disassemble my Formula. I thought I would post a few pictures.
This is the first time that I have ever taken apart such an untampered with vehicle. This car was only on the road for 12 years and spent the rest of the time in storage. Most old cars I have had have either been virtually nothing left or were worked on by a dozen people before me. I had no idea of the markings I would find on stuff like the headliner. Here are pics of the top of the headliner, the vapor can behind the rear seat, the dust barriers behind the door panel, the vinyl between the rear seat bottoms.

Here is a pic after I got it home and started cleaning some things up and deciding what metal needed to be replaced, etc.

Thought I'd add a couple more pics. Progress has been exceptionally slow but I'm still plugging away. I pulled the rearend and began cleaning it up. I'm not an expert on all the codes but I believe this is the rear that has always been in the car. Actually, the only parts that appear to have ever been replaced(other than general maintenance) are the front valance, passenger mirror, one spoiler end, the gas tank and the wiper motor.
