Here's where the car was discussed before.

Apparently it is real, and someone on the board knows the current owner. It would be interesting to get some photos just to satisfy our curiousity.
I also talked with a guy who claimed he ordered a 71 or 72 Formula with a 455HO 4-spd in orange. Upon receipt, he immediately bought T/A fenders, hood, and shaker and converted it to a T/A.
I saw a photo of it, and it looked like an orange T/A with factory T/A stripes.
