1973 Formula 455 Project, 1973 Parts Car and More Parts
« on: December 06, 2013, 05:42:07 PM »
It has been fun, but I have decided to move on from the Firebird hobby. I will be selling my cars and parts.  Here is a brief description of the items I have for sale.

1973 Formula 455 - Subframe and front suspension powdercoated and completely rebuilt with '72 455 engine and trans also rebuilt. Includes all engine accessories, radiator, condenser, etc... Could be rolled under a car and operational in a couple of hours. This is fully detailed and looks new. Have all of the parts to complete this car(or not).

Rusted out '73 parts car. 12x12 building full of parts from several cars I have parted. Most of my interest was in Formulas so those are the parts I have collected. In addition to the original parts, I also have some performance parts.

If anyone is looking for an excuse to get their old car running again, some of this will get you in the right direction. I am hoping my sale can contribute to the completion of a couple of cars.

Here is a link to everything I have for sale:

There are enough parts to build one very complete '73 Formula 455 including title. I have titles for a couple of '73s and the parts from them.

I would like to sell the restored/rebuilt subframe/455/TH400 for $5000. For another $2500, I will add all of the parts necessary to complete a 73 Formula 455 including title. The other parts I have would be available at that point. I would like for someone to get everything they want/need before I start selling individual parts. I don't have "rare" parts like hairy hoses, plastic valances, etc......

Thanks for your interest. I can provide detailed specs for the engine build. The trans has a mild shift kit and a redneck converter. Everything on the subframe is new or rebuilt.

Thanks,
Tom
