Paul, it's a shame your cars don't shine a bit more :lol:

Nice pics!

Paul's Formula is definately looking good.  8)

I was never really into Formulas until I got "Crazy4my10th's" 1979 W72 4 speed Formula in the shop this year.....and now I'm kinda wanting one myself!

Formulas are really sharp cars when they are nice and new looking. You just don't see very many nice ones.

Hey guys thanks for the kind words. I appreciate it.
As for spec on the Formula:
1 of 367, W72 400/4spd. 56k orig. miles. Aside from factory a/c and body side molding, its a stripper, it didn't even come with a rear spoiler! Although it has one now. :wink:
Body is rock solid and straight, paint is a weak.

Looks nice Leigh!
I miss the beach!
I'll be back in Los Angeles in a week or so, for a few weeks.
You can bet I'll be hitting the beach there!
Any shark attacks this year down there?

Yeah, but mainly over in West Australia.....actually, nothing this 'year" but seeing as how the year is only 9 days old I think thats not a good indication....lol.

Hey Lawbreaker--

When are you going to restore that '76?  I'd sure like to see that drive past my house on a warm summer night!
