After realizing I cannot seem to make the time needed to restore my car and since I am buying a cabin cruiser so I can enjoy some free time finally with family and friends that will no doubt take up a lot more of my time, I have come to terms and balanced out what is realistic and what is just male testosterone. So I am putting my car for sale regretfully....
1970 Pontiac Formula 400 RA III with a Muncie close ratio 4-speed trans and 12 bolt 3:73 posi rear. Optional Lucerne blue ext w/ bright blue deluxe int, 15" Rallye package, chrome trim package, heavy duty suspension with front disc brakes and no luxury options to make car lighter, all original matching numbers with 44k original miles and PHS Documentation is included. This is a car that bows to no muscle or pony car in stock form. These are amongst some of the fastest Pontiacs ever released from the factory. Try and find another ordered like this one, all I can tell you is good luck as in 7 years of searching other owners I could only find one other restored and another missing everything.
It does need a full restoration, it does have body rot in quarters, trunk jamb and rust in the common places with the f-bodies but she is solid with great floors and solid rails. I have seen other cars needing more that are worth less and were restored to a lucrative classic so I have no doubts with this one as even the same year Trans Am Ram Air III's can't touch her price tag. There is nothing to hide with the vehicle as I partially disassembled here setting up to begin the work so it is all there to see. This is a very sought out, rare muscle/pony car that's even more rare due to the way factory ordered. I do not have a title, as these cars came with none in this era and I was going to do the Broadway title thing but apparently you cannot obtain one with out the car passing a safety inspection and insurance which I obviously cannot do due to the car being apart but again I have PHS documentation and I will be happy to give a bill of sale. Everything is there right down to the original AM radio except for original carb and windshield that cracked being removed. She is even still on her Good Year Poly glass tires! I am not desperate for money but I am fair and expect the same in return as this is a once in a life time chance so she goes to the best offer around $9K cash and the car is well worth it and I know if anyone knows these cars they know it too. Scammers do not even bother as I will not take a check, credit card or a story and this deal is only for those that can do it in person. Serious inquiries only please as I am not here to waste your time or mine. It is just a sin for this car to lay up and for me to become one of those guys that will own her for decades but will restore her one day... know what I mean?
If interested please call (347) 526-0871 ... Please do not text and please no calls after 8 pm, thanks.
