haha i was jus playin around to be honest i was seriously thinkin about putting on a 78 nose on my car but then she wouldn't be who she is so i decided to stick with my 79 some day ill do a nice 71. i really love the 69 trans ams even though they don't look anything like any other TA"s that rear spoiler on them looks so cool.  id have to go with what everyone else does and do it up white with blue stripes

yeah i know but just think about it if everyone starts fixing them up then we will not have any parts cars and refinishing a car would be a multi million dollar project

That's great dude. I'm 17 and I love my 78 Formula a lot. Can't see myself in any other car. :D
