Added that 400 badge on the trunk, along with the power steering and power brakes....
It's a pretty nice looking car.

My Lucy Blue 1970 Formula only had four options, it came with povery caps. I've seen a single option 1970 Formula 400 before, the only option was AM radio. It had manual disc, manual steering, and non-tinted glass.

I saw that.
Volo has nice cars, but it seems like more often than not (because there are exceptions) they "doll" them up. I would wager they doll them up, because they typically ask absolute top dollar - but with offering financing ect, I guess they can get away with it. I find it curious that they mounted that badge so low. Image of pre-porduction car with badge attached (the MPC shows it in this location on the deck lid - not on the lower edge as they have mounted it).

and for the record, my two favorite Formulas that I have seen to date were:
1) the gold numbers matching Formula in HPP ages ago: 2) the blue numbers matching Formula that a member here had restored a couple years back. Both were full gauge stick cars with no console - and devoid of spoiler. --- EDIT: one of my other favorites was in large part due to the story: It was a silver four speed car that was brought back from the dead and documented on Facebook some years ago. Unfortunately a while after getting the thing running and roadworthy, it sold, so I lost track of it. Like this Volo car, it was a sliver on black car; Deluxe interior, full gauges, ps & pb (iirc), rally ii wheels - found mostly original albeit with a spoiler, and a Trans Am hood with a black "RAM AIR IV" decal on the shaker.
