2 New Birds
I have added 2 new birds to the flock.
The first is a 1972 that someone made into a 1972 T/A Clone. I will be using quite a few parts from this car. It just happens to be a non-A/C car so I now have all of the underdash parts for my 70 T/A.
This second car I bought today. It is a matching #'s 71 Formula 400 with a rebuilt motor and trans. I finally got a numbers Formula 400 and it happens to be a non-A/C car as well.
Non-A/C cars are hard to find but much appreciated by me. Less mess under the hood. It is a Lucerne blue car with a bright blue standard interior.(My favorite combo) I will have to replace or dye all of the black spray painted interior. And yes, that is a sunroof.
The white car above will be donating its inner and outer roof structure. The rest of the car is incredibly clean. It even has a good trunk. I will also have to put in a correct core support from the white car and a correct passenger fender from my green 71 Esprit. The passenger fender on the Formula has the 73 and up brace support but I do not see anywhere from the inside that it has been cut or welded to add the Formula grilles. Did they make a later style replacement fender?
I will take the formula steering wheel from the white car as well. I think they look great. I will get the PHS faxed to me tomorrow.
