Why statistics exist for 73 Formula SD's
The reason we have a complete, 100% breakdown for the 73 Formulas and not for the 74's is that, sometime in the mid 90's, an enthusiast had a strong interest in the 73 Formula's. Through hard work and dedication, he was able to obtain all 43 VIN's through communication with each state's DMV. He then ordered the PHS documents for all 43 cars. He allowed me to compile the data on those 43, which appeared in one of the SD Registries, back in the time when they were printed and mailed. I have to believe the opportunity to gather this type of information from the DMV is no longer permitted. PHS, by contract, is not allowed to mine the microfilm for statistics. They are only able to fill orders from customers who provide a VIN. So, we will never be able to obtain a 100%breakdown on the 74's like we have for the 73's.

The greatest Firebird Formula ever built IMHO. Radio delete, 4-speed. What a beast. Rick Mahoney pics, his car.

Nicest SD formula maybe...
I would rather have the never built 70 RAIV 4 speed formula with dual snouts. I hold that the snout hood is the reason a formula is a formula...

SD-455 lump under the hood trumps two lumps on top.

Yup. That was why the original owner of my SD Formula ordered a Formula in the first place back in Spring of 1973. He was mighty angry in July 1973 when it showed up with that shaker. And as a salesman back then you would not have wanted to deal with a 6'7" 285 lb., pissed-off purchaser.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
