Default 1971 or 72 HO formula wanted

I guess I'll join the ranks of looking for a 71/72 HO formula!

4 speed preferred, but will consider all.

Best case scenario, numbers matching/numbers correct clean driver.

email: farmhousebrewer@comcast.net

Thanks!
Scott

Found one in NY, but you will have to call to find out if it is 4sp or auto. GLW search.

Dude - that is terrible! I hate to hear about false advertisements like that. At least you did your homework and found out before you made the purchase.

The car in NY does have PHS and the real deal. He's done quite a bit of work, 1/4's roof replaced, but still has a long way to go, needs quite a bit, but it is all there. For someone who does their own work, is worthwhile.

I'll clarify- looking for something like Njsteve purchased, all original survivor that is all together, and driver.

Thanks so far!

Scott

Hey Scott, who's car you callin' a driver???

:-)

My last 72 was a driver, too, I'll have you know! I drove it on the trailer from your driveway!

P.S. I think the collector down in Maryland that has it is still interested in selling it.
