Not exactly true, the 73 & 74 SD Formulas had T/A Hoods. But you are correct for any non SD 455 powered Formula

I've seen at least two '32 roadsters with pedals that are higher than the seat. (Like I imagine those are.). I can't wrap my head around how I'd drive that.

What exactly were you searching for when you found that one Jeremy? Looking for new sofas for the family room?

I feel that just sitting in this thing you would contract some sort of venereal disease, or at the very least, fleas and ticks.

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.
