I love the red wires on the fire wall...They should keep the hood closed IMHO

BARF!! and on a stand right next to the car!! These owners have either been seriously "Dupped", OR they need an education, IF willing to get it.
I find it odd the Grilles are BLACK.. The big ol BUICK sticker really just blows the whole thing.. I look at this car like I do mine, a nice driver. Keep printing the Buick style stickers and they may just change history!!
On the Lug nuts, I use the Gorilla BULDGE bottom nuts, looks near original and have a nice mate surface.To use the stainless covered nuts , as NJ Steve has mentioned , you need the right 4 way wrench and do em by hand.
I find it amazing that this cars association with HPP , and the available knowledge, the engine turned out like it it did.( what can be seen)
I do like the 2002 Color, and have considered painting my Formula that color...not sure it would go with Burgundy Deluxe interior though

I believe that's true for '72 T/A's but the Formulas came standard with the steel wheels so the PHS and build sheets will show the extra cost wheel option for Honeycombs or Rally II's.

No expert here but I guess this window sticker was made up and modified by someone. The reason I say this is because the choice of transmission and wheel was a free option in 72 and this sticker shows options for transmission and wheels with the price, my window sticker does not show those options in the option list.

auto/4 speed transmissions and honeycomb/rally wheels were added cost options on Formulas so they are supposed to show on Formula PHS docs.

Got it so the no charge was only a Trans Am thing. Thanks

[transam1972]

I have AMES repop lugs with caps and they are fine...I even saved 1 original as a lucky charm...this FORMULA that's posted, did the standard alternators get a rear bracket..or just 80 amps? thanks!

['ol Pinion head]

Yes, but the standard 10SI alt used a different rear alt bracket with PS than did the 27SI (80 amp) set-up.

[transam1972]

I was trying to determine if this car has the rear bracket or not?...I mean, who doesn't have a rear alt. bracket??!... I still will never know the truth about my car...the rear alt . bracket bolt hole appears never used..unless the funky corrosion the alt. housings get covered up the signs?..wishful thinking it was inadvertently left off at the factory...it is the original alt...most likely not put back when SR engine was installed...

[transam1972]

I know its difficult to tell, but does that look to be original Honeycomb paint?...I got these as I prefer them to Rally IIs..thanks!!

[Judge273]

The MSRP is up there! $2,500 in options alone...Not many expensive options missing? That car is loaded for speed and comfort.

Not good for honey wheels. As the red center lugs are anything but wrong.

[The Boss]

I'd drive it!
