Default Re: 1972 Firebird Formula 455HO, automatic (not mine)

Yes. That's what's so nice about the 72 Pontiacs. The engine VIN is right there for all to see. To sum up what my math whiz daughter would say: X=$$$$$ [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/scholar.gif[/img]

Mostly everything else that is needed for the car is there. That air cleaner is a rare (translated as expensive) part. They usually got tossed away. The 1972 455HO 7F6 heads are there, as well as the original ram air exhaust manifolds.

I emailed the seller to see if he has the carb part number and the transmission VIN stamp photo. A correct 7042270 automatic trans carb is a $2,000 to $3,000 piece. It also looks like the 1112133 unitized distributor is gone. That's another $500 piece.

BTW, here is what the car would look like finished:
