UPDATE

While at Steve's today I was able to see that the metal work on the SD Formula should be finished in a matter of days! Then it is on to paint preparation. In the event that this car is finished on our schedule that we developed, I have entered it in MCACN this November. Steve thinks it is on schedule for completion before that show. I'm crossing my fingers.

The only sheetmetal we needed ended up being both trunk drops, outer wheel house panels, and one passenger side quarter panel. All the seam sealer has been removed and any corrosion has been dealt with. This really was one nice body. Enjoy the photos.

NJSteve mentioned a while back that he was talking with MCACN about showcasing SD Formulas at the next event. If that happens... I would consider dragging my car out there..

BTW - I've racked up about 2500 miles on the SD since purchase..... I drove it around today..

Nice progress!

If I recall correctly, all the white, 1973 automatic SD Formulas are on the registry! Eight, if I remember right. One shows as being scrapped in England.


Bob Ashton who runs MCACN would be the guy to talk to about a display. http://www.mcacn.com/ He's a great guy and runs an awesome show.

I am bringing the 73 Formula SD for the vintage certification which has its own display area. And as an added bonus, the original owners, Enrico and Lenora Stein are coming up from Scottsdale to be reunited with their car. They postponed their 50th wedding anniversary and are using this trip as their anniversary celebration.
