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.

Default 73 SD Parts

Where would be the best place to advertise some 73 SD parts?
I have an original block, crank, rods and heads.
Most likely Ebay?
Thanks,
Darryl

So I read a claim made on Facebook. Thought I'd check some facts.

In 73 Formula production equalled

33 Automatic
10 Manual
43 Total

Only 6 known to exist?

I know of

Brewster
Florentine Red
2 Admiralty Blue
2 Cameo White
2 Ascot Silver

This is what I've seen and heard their might be a black one, and sure there's a red one...

Anyone else want to add?

I forgot to check the registry,

6 known seems low, and a few are survivor cars.
