It really is an "aquired" taste,isn't it.
As we've previously discussed,it seems that one actually needs to OWN a T/A to get past the "wanna be" thing. |

If anyone is interested, the photos are after adding the following components: sub frame connectors, solid body bushings, front end "racing" rebuild kit (includes tubular upper control arms), new springs all around, new adjustable shocks, new poly sway bar bushings all around (all prior items from Dave at Protouringfbody.com). 17x9 "Hot Wheels" rims (with classic PMD center caps), NITTO 555's, Willwood 4 wheel disc kit from Prodigy Customs (6-piston front, 4-piston rear, drilled and slotted 12" rotors).
Now that the important things are done I can start thinking about paint. I almost forgot to mention my bumper sticker identifying the Formula as a "Hydrocarbon Powered Eco-Vehicle", in other words it runs on oil. This really confuses the lefties at the coffee house.

Zyman that looks great. I bet it handles great to.
Where did you get that sticker? With me being in California, I could already see the tree huggers flipping me off. I love it. |

fbird:
The car handles very well. Now it needs more power. The sticker comes from glennbeck.com go to "store" and then "miscellaneous" and scroll down. You get two for about $7. I put the other one on my wife's Buick Enclave and she routinely gets asked if it is one of those hybrids....you just have to laugh.

The garage was a mess, had to put everthing outside and hose it down.
Three 73 T/A's and a 69 Vert. I'm afraid I have run out of room. |

They ARE different that a T/A & should stay that way. They tend to be way more exclusive & distinctive in colors & options that T/A's are,which CAN make them MORE interesting. |

Here's mine - 73 Formula 350 4-speed.. converted into a 73 Formula 455 4-speed (using a 1970 Grand Prix SJ 455, and a 1972 GTO 4-speed). Looks kind of stock - it's not.
Suspension is all WS-6 Spec (sway bars, steering box, springs) and all bushings are graphite-impregnated polyurethane 3.42 Posi.. 15x8 snowflakes.. I've done so much to this car I don't even know where to start. It's more fun than you can even imagine
