The 70-73 T/A's will ALWAYS be AT or NEAR the top of MY list but a correctly optioned 70-73 Formula 400/455 can be even MORE interesting than a T/A.
Correctly optioned (for me)would have to include a 4 speed trans,Rally gauges with tach,Safe-T-Track with desireable colors,in & out. NO A/C!
Ram Air is ALSO pretty essential.
The Firebird body style in those years stands alone EXTREMELY WELL without all of Trans am GAK. (Road & Track magazine really TRASHED the T/A in their testing of the newly releaded second generation F-cars.They called it the ultimate "gookmobile" or something similar as I recall)
The Formula hood is all the Firebird really needs.
Bird 72,can you tell us how BAD the rear spoiler looks on these cars???
