That is a good looking 72 Formula. The colors don't due much for me, but it looks mostly solid.

70 Lemans Sport convertible with a stick at $25K BIN in Minnesota. Pretty blue buckets are sweet. 54K miles and very original. It won't last long IMO.

For such a nice looking car it sure did not generate any interest, being bid to only $2500.

That car does look nice and if it had AC I would probably bid.
Im guessing the feedback score of seller is the stumbling point

67 79K original miles NM Firebird Sprint in CA at $32K BIN OBO. CA cars are a plus and this one looks clean. Very fair asking price IMO.

It does look like a Solid 67 Sprint, Automatic though. Interesting that the automatic 67 Sprint does not have a Traction bar on the drivers side. I always thought they got a pair in 67 like the manual trans cars. But apparently not. But I have always avoided automatic sprints as the 2-speed transmission does not match up well with the rpm range of the 230 sprint engines IMO. I only owned 1 automatic Sprint, a 66 Lemans with A/C and 3.08 gears. Loved the looks of the car, and the working A/C. But the performance just irked me every time I drove it!

The seat covers look way better than many that show up on this thread. Cool to see such a nice one.

Manual trans (except the 1bbl) got 2 radius rods

Easy fix to the ST300 is the 200-4r.
On 66 you may need to drill the frame as the crossmember is moved to
TH400 position(not yet available in A body)

Gary I did not have to move the crossmember when I put a 200R4 in that 66, but I had a time hooking up the TV cable on the sideways mounted Q-jet!

This one is really a good deal when it boils down. 81 Trans/AM in Georgia at $54K BIN OBO with an LS3. Man, this has to be a blast to drive. Looks stock, and most don't realize the effort it takes to put a 400HP FI engine onto one of these. The turbo hood helps make it fit. I would love to drive this car. May not be worth the asking, but worth consideration IMO as it would cost more than that to build. The LS3 is a monster. I get 19 MPG in my 2010 Camaro. FWIW, the 79 T/A WS6 was voted as Motor Trend's best handling car, and there Trans AM's rock when it comes to roadworthy.
