Default '73 Formula 400 4spd on BAT

Decent looking car. I don't think I've seen a Brewster Formula before.

Now why would you have the tach on the left and speedometer on the right? A little backwards I'd say.... and awkward looking at them.

But still a nice looking car.

I was eyballing that and even threw down a bid as it is somewhat local. Looks like a decent car but lost interest past 25k.

I like that car. I thought about bidding on it but if I did I would have stopped around 35K. The guy that bought says he has a 73 SD car in Brewster also which is why he wanted it so badly (didn't say if the other car was a TA or Formula).

Nice dry original low mileage car. Good money for a 400 car.

Brew, original? Repaint, engine work, possible trans work, exhaust work, rims, etc. Far from original and while I know it's not for sale now, it'll be hard to get that money out of it later.

Yah, according to the window sticker, it should be Rally II wheels.
Then there's that Buick air cleaner decal.
