[1971WARBIRD]

like has been said before, lots and lots of issues for that price.
wrong; fenders, radiator shroud, alt, steering wheel, gauge cluster, cut dash, rear spoiler, rally wheel center caps, early pieced together aftermarket Ram Air cleaner, might be after market 15x8 rally II's? does it have headers? kind of looks like it from the picture.

very nice looking car, and if you want a good looking driver, it's your money.

even if it is a matching number car, you would have thousands in it trying to put it back to a 71 condition. just my thoughts.

Could swear that particular automatic '71 HO Formula has been for sale in the last 2-4 years & it was in the N metroplex area. I remember the color, as I'm "killing the cardinal" red on my HO T-37 & going back with rosewood metallic. going to look killer with black parody cloth interior & poverty caps.

I just got an email from Charles at ECS Automotive telling me that they now have the correct RQ air cleaner decal for the 1972 455HO.

(of course, now that I no longer have a 1972 455HO!)

So give them a call and order one before the production run, runs out.

good tip. thanks for the heads up!

Hey Steve,
I didn't remember you not still having your 72, it was a beautiful car, but heres an example of ECS's work. These are the correct air cleaner & block code decals for 71 Trans Am's. They can make any thing we need if somebody can supply a good pic, or an actual decal for them to use as a guide.

Thanks to 68bird400HO for sending them an original decal a while back and to Steve for knowing they had it. This stuff's hard to find.

I moved up a year to a 73, and BentWheelBob has the black 72 now.

ECS made their 1972 emissions sticker off of the one I supplied them from my 72 T/A, a few years back. It's nice to see that the guys at ECS are rather attentive to our needs when we bring them a new idea for an item.

Thanks for the heads up Steve! I talked to Charles this morning and he needs 73 SD decal information. I'm sending him some pics, but you might also from that beautiful car of yours!

Cheers,

Hello,

I just started a thread in the Judge forum and now I find this thread. http://forums.maxperformanceinc.com/...d.php?t=737638

My decal # is PB 6486810. Can anyone else verify?

Are the decals basically the same with different numbers? How do I go about getting one made?

[1971455HO]

Contact them (ECS) and give them your part number. From what I've seen, Only the numbers change for 1971 no matter what model Pontiac you have.. I can't swear for earlier or later years. But yes for 1971. If they don't have it, they can make it with the information they already have.

Hi, it's been a while since I've been on here. I had to sell my '73 Formula to get a 55 Chevy Two Lane Blacktop Style, but since then I had a 61 Bubble Top and now I have a 70 4 Speed Firebird 350 and my newest one is a pretty rare find I guess. Lucerne blue '72 Trans Am 4 Speed. I found it in a small Country between France and Spain, called Andorra. It is a so called "tax paradise" like Monaco. I will get to the whole story later how I found it. It looks a bit cheesy, but other than the 70's Disco bolt ons, the car is unbelieveable original and rust free. No rust ever. Even the original trunk mat is in perfect conditon. A true Street Machine Survivor although I do not really like the wide wheel wells, it is a real time machine. I kinda like those Rocket sidepipes though Why the old owner did write 6,6 Turbo on the Shaker will remain unknown

WOW!!!!!

Plastic front valance, shorty spoiler tips... it definitely looks pretty much all there. Time capsule for sure. Congratulations on finding yet one more of the second lowest TA production cars of all. It's amazing how '72s continue to be found.

Uhhh.... How exactly did you find it???

[johnta1]

Car looks ....... great.



Do you have the PHS on it?

Different how they grafted the formula scoops on the steel hood.
Looks like they did a good job of molding them in.

[starlightblack]

woweeee, lucky you. Nice find. Just wanna throw this out there for all : how would that sunroof be fixed? a whole new roof skin?

[Judge273]

Someone made it the best of both worlds in my book...Lucy blue 4 speed TA morphed into a Formula plus more. Manned it up!

[2manyT/A'S]

That is a KICK*SS car!.....everything we LOVE to HATE on a early 70's Trans am.

Don't change a THING....TOTAL time warp.

Starlight Black....the only way to properly fix a sunroof is to cut the WHOLE roof off...from the base of the windshield to the tops of the rear quarters....
