Wow, you just found a totally cool Poncho! Sticks are rare in Bonnies . . . I know the number is in the Standard Book of Cars printed by Old Cars, but I don't have it with me. I bet only 200 cars were sticks. This is a ragtop with a 421. Damn. Is it tripower? This car is about as good as it gets apart from a Super Duty.

How about a 73 Formula 400? Owner doesn't intend to sell, and will make good on his offer to restore it someday. Plans are an aluminum pontiac motor-- 468 to be exact. He's got some pretty good heads too that are on it now, #16's from a '68 428. Been in storage for 2 years after busting the cam and bending some valves.

if its in a safe dry place as it appears to be more power to him, but as for those people who just let cars rot that could otherwise be restored there is a muscle car hell for them somewhere

I love those Formula hoods...I looked at a blue Formula when I was living in Nashville. I had to drive by it every day going to school/work, and one day I finally stopped and gave it the once over...cool cars.

Anyone wanna take a shot at how much he paid for that Formula? I'll give you a hint, it aint a whole heck of a lot.
