72 Formula 455HO/4 spd

[Grant Didmon]

I have not been able to post any pictures,as my lovely wife is on a cruise in Europe with her girlfriend and took our digital camera with her,and she is not back till the end of next week.She doesn't know I bought the Formula last friday so its our secret.I got a box of bills from the widow,and two days After I bought it,I finally got to go through them all,and I have all the bills back to the original owner,how cool is that.The car has all it's original panels/trunk and floors.It was painted in 1985 and it is still a really nice 5 footer.The last owner of 25 years who pased away,took the 455 Formula signs off the fenders,and took the Ram Air decals off the hood scoops,as he was paranoid on having the car stolen.In July 1987 he had the car broken into,the perfect black deluxe seats stolen completely,and the Insurance company put in redyed red to black 78-80 style Firebird seats in it.I checked all the glass codes today,and sure enough the drivers window was smashed to get into the car,as it is some weird brand,but I found the car still has the original windshield in it.It spent it's first 14 years in London Ontario,and only had 53,000 miles when they shipped it to the West coast of Canada to the new buyer,that person who passed away and I got to buy it.It is the most powerful car I have ever owned,and I had a LS5 70 Chevelle convert in the late 90's,and this pulls way stronger than the Chevelle did, and the original M-22 in the Formula is a treat to be shifting through the gears.
