Default T/A hood bird on Formula hood

Does anyone have a pic of 70-73 Formula with the large hood bird on it? A guy in town used to have one when I was a kid and I always thought it looked pretty cool. Considering it for my 73 Formula along with the wheel flairs. Any help is appreciated.

If you want a Trans-Am buy a TA!

Formulas have a particular no nonsense look about them that IMHO needs nothing.

Thanks for the pic. Boss, If I wanted a T/A I would have one. I may or may not go with the wheel flairs, but I am definately putting on the large bird. Oh, and it is my car so I will do whatever I want with it, I wasn't asking for anyones permission. Thanks for the replies.

My response was not intended to offend - my apologies if it did.

Sorry Boss if I came off a little rough, but you know how it is when you ask a question about something and it seems like the replies you get are telling you your idea is dumb, especially when you didn't ask for an opinion, you just asked for a pic. Again, sorry for being a little snipppy.

I completely understand.

I've got a 73 Formula 400 myself - love the looks of the early 2nd gens.

Sure, not a problem.

It's a color change car, Black wasn't available on a Formula in 73.

Boss, what kind of seats are those?
I have a '71 formula and I'm currently installing 2001 Camaro ebony leather seats in it. The fronts are done but the back is a bit tricky. I think I have if figured out though. Should be in and back on the road this weekend.

Sorry didn't mean to go off subject ;-)
