Somebody stole the radio.......but they left a delete plate in it's place....
![]() Needs an open face alternator....and somebody forgot to pick the price tags off all the parts.........but very cool car nontheless..... ![]() I'd take it just the way it is....and have it "all fixed up" in no time... The sticker on top of the air cleaner has to GO...whether it is correct...or NOT... Price may be a BIT optimistic....but go find another....

Nice looking car. (Quote: THIS IS A ONE OF 160 OR SO 1971 PONTIAC FIREBIRD FORMULA 455 HO WITH RAM AIR. PHS DOCUMENTED)
455HO car, yes. But non-ram air from the factory. Functional Hood and matching air cleaner are an extra cost option on the 71 Formula 455HO. You had to check the option box to get the functional Ram Air in 71. (Which would also be listed on the PHS). In 72, Functional hood/ram air was mandatory as part of the 455HO package on the Formula.

That is a sweet car in my opinion despite the little and correctable flaws. It has my preferred option list (no a/c or rubber roof) of 455 HO, M22, Saf-T-Trak, gauges & tach, it just needed the Handling Package (except factory 15's!) and deluxe interior (added PUI) added to the window sticker.
If I hadn't already bought the one I did last year, I'd give this one some serious thought. I agree that the price is too high missing the original motor and tranny. The rear spoiler has to go too. Dennis |

Actually, it is optioned pretty ideally except for not being ordered with Ram Air, the Handling Pkg, and Custom Interior. I like the stripes but may look better in the recommended black (to go with the black interior).
When I think about it, the only options I don't like on my Formy are the A/C and rubber roof (which is history), everything else is fine in my book. At least I have the numbers matching engine and trans. I would love to see if there is a strippo 455HO/Raim Air/M22/3.73 saf-t-trak with maybe soft ray glass (all),HD radiator and battery, and the 15" Rally II's (I don't think you could get the 15" steelies in '71) out there somewhere. That would be my ideal Formula. Dennis |

The LH fender may be a factory replacement fender. I think have one of those 71 replacement finders with the bracket holes.
