Baron- Hi. I think you may have gotten an old link. If you look at the current inventory at Trans Am Florida (TAF) that car does not show up, but it does if you go to the sold inventory. Also that car was for sale at Carlyle Motors (they have some sort of partnership with TAF) and it isn't on their site either.
Nice car though

Okay thanks S'nG .

Said it was located in Texas [affiliate] location.
Seemed like a pretty fair price point for a nice #'s car at a dealer.

Had the right front valance.
Power windows added to a low option standard interior car seemed a little bit unusual though.

This one popped up on Dave Hall's Facebook page, unsure if he bought it/owns it or not. Neat interior, aftermarket Hurst Shifter...a fine driver. Says one owner from Florida, but those pics definitely look more like Nebraska, where Restore A Musclecar is based.

He has a knack for finding great T/As , that's for sure.

X2. Plus a few less things painted black that shouldn't be.

Definitely a Florida car I’ve looked at it several times

Love the drive line not so much the color combo. If you ever seen a brew car with white in person they just dont flow.

One obvious thing is the SD decal on the valve cover is on the wrong one?

Looks like a great SD TA though!

It is a great car and excellent color combination though I would prefer saddle cloth.

I cannot disagree with you more. I have owned a Brewster SD with white interior for 32 years now, and when the exterior and interior are cleaned well, the car couldn't look better. I guess personal preferences shows up yet again.

By the way, the Fla. car in the pics does not have white interior, it is the beige cloth interior, another spectacular combo, IMO.

OK - my bad. Looked at the thumb nails - dashboard and console look brown, which is what you got when you ordered the beige cloth. I see now these seats are vinyl, which means it has to be white (and console/dash are black), but these pics do not do justice to white interior.

Long shot...Does anybody here know if the '73 SD Formula in the black and white picture from the H-O Racing Specialties catalog is the same car as pictured here in these vintage color pics? Or probably different cars?

Look for rear tub repair work on the car. Hard to hide that without a major rebuild and then there should be other red flags.

yes 1975 is different 1974 was the year they change fuel tank from 19 (18) Gallon to 21 gallon, the reason why 1974 fuel send unit is different is because the 2 lines 3/8" for fuel and 1/4" for return going thru the passenger side of the tank and running from the back right side of the car thru the front and after two long rubber hoses to fuel pump,

the emission line that come from the tank go to the driver side of the tank and running thru the right side and cross under radiator to find the canister on the front right corner of the engine compartment.

in 1975 was the first year of Catalytic converter i assume they dont want to run main fuel line close to the converter is to hot and they running the main fuel line thru the driver side (left side) and the return and emission lines to the passenger side and this is thru 1981.

the original part number is also found in 1974 Camaro and 1974-75 Chevy Nova

i found that Firebird and T/A 1976 to 1980 and also Chevy nova 1976 to 1979 with Chevy 305 & 350 with 4 bbl carburator uses SPECTRA FG103B that i think is very similar or the same as 1974 unit

anyone use this FG103B?? thanks

the pics is 1=FG103B 2=25000308 3=74 ORIG SENDING UNIT 4=ORIG TANK AND SENDING UNIT 5=DIAGRAM
