All kiddin' aside though...Not a bad looking project if it is actually mechanically the way he implies and the floors/trunk aren't rusted.
Never heard that claim that the '76 was the 'best' 400....didn't think a whole lotta people were cloning Formulas either...Still, nice project.

Got to admit the car does have potential, if it ain't a rust bucket
I have always like the looks of the 73 Formula nose.
Unless the bird is a transplant from a dryer climate then what we have out here, my guess is it has some rot issues

It probably is actually a '79. The tailights are 79-81.
Dog house is 77-78. Seller must be super dislexique.

Taillights are 79 but not from a TA or Formula. 79 was the only year without the 'Bird emblem in the fuel door. 80 and 81 had it.

About Us

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.
