And to think just 7 years and 37 days ago I was pressure washing the last project that looked just like this underneath! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif[/img]

I remember that like it was yesterday...

The car got picked up in Vancouver this morning by TFX Transport. http://www.tfxinternational.com/

Now the clock starts ticking...3000 miles to go! The car is starting at the farthest point west, from New Jersey that you can possibly get!

BTW, Grant said it was raining all day and then stopped for the 15 minutes it took to load up the car. Once the car was in the trailer, it started raining again. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img]

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: njsteve</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Mike, That had to be this car since it was from that exact neighborhood from 1972 to 1985 and the only black Formula up there at the time. Give your brothers a heads up about this thread. I'd love to have their opinions and stories, too.

Great info on the PHS adddress, too.

That's what I love about this site, people sharing their stories. It's really amazing what a small world it is. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img]

If you are in Chicago in November, I may bring the car to MCACN if Mr. Ashton thinks it fits in the &quot;as found&quot; class. I'd love to have you and your brothers see it in person. </div></div>

An absolute MUST for MCACN 2012! And I can pretty much assure you...there will not be another black 455 Formula in the show! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/headbang.gif[/img]

Well, I don't know???? They did make a second black one for the US market and I think it's in Kansas.

I wouldn't want to be that person who ends up wearing the same prom dress as another attendee. You know how truly embarassing that would be? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/shocked.gif[/img]

Never again! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/no.gif[/img]

Steve
It sure is a small world ,when we have a person on the site that remembers the exact car cruising the streets of London Ontario.I emailed the widow of the formula that I bought it from,and she will not give me the time of day,too bad.
