Out of curiosity, why not a 1979 W72?

I want an automatic W72 Formula for the pure stock drags...plus the fact that you just don't see them. The 4-speed cars seem to have a higher survival rate since they are more desirable to the enthusiast. Only 4-speeds in '79. Now, if a '79 W72 just fell into my lap, I probably would get it.
