This is an all original Ram Air 400 Formula Firebird with only 81209 orig miles! It is an original orange with white interior car. The engine and trans has the matching vin stamps. I also have orig carb (needs a kit). I have another q-jet carb on it now. The car has just been completely restored. It is beautiful and a lot of fun to drive. It gets a lotta attention whenever I take it out. The AC system was flushed out and is ready for charging. It has power steering and power disc brakes. One of the orig exhaust manifolds broke when I tried to get it off the block so I put headers on it (it likes it). I removed the eng and trans during resto. I also took whole front clip off. I pulled intake and heads and replaced the head gaskets with steel shim and re-gasketed the engine. It was all it needed. It runs great, starts easy and does not get hot. The orig gas tank was flushed as was orig radiator. They were both pretty clean.The body was stripped to bare metal, epoxy primed and brought back up with a polyester primer for blocking and finished out with PPG single stage DDC then wet sanded and buffed. It is gorgeous. The emblems are new as is the rear bumper. I restored both grills to the correct colors and the orange and black stripe is correct for this car and unique to the 73 Formula. The seat covers are new as is the carpet. This is a solid, reliable hot rod. Don't let it get away! I didn't bother with PHS docs as the car has its orig eng/trans, wheels and trim tag. There is nothing else the PHS will tell you. I have done my best to describe this car but there is no accounting for individual taste.
