1973 Firebird Formula on 2040-cars

1973 Firebird Formula for sale by private owner.  This is a very nice restoration of an original rust free car from Texas.   The original color was code 74 (Florentine Red), and it has been repainted the factory color with base coat/clear coat.   The pictures will speak for the paint job; it is professionally done.   There are no issues with rust or bubbling of paint.  The trim code is 247; deluxe oxblood vinyl.   The color combination is very striking; gets lots of attention at any cruise- in or car show.   The Formula drives just as good as it looks; factory air and a nice stereo compliment the ride.

This is a Formula 350 and it still has the original engine in the car.   The current mileage is 64,991; but due to reviewing previous service records, I believe the Firebird has rolled over to 164,991.  The engine was pulled and had a complete rebuild in May of 2006; it performs very well with no issues. This was done around the 150,000 mile mark.  Please note the orignallity of the air cleaner and fresh air intake for the car.  New brakes, mufflers, heater core, shocks, etc. were also done is this time period.   American Racing Torque Thrusts are currently on the car; 16's on the front and 17's on the rear.   A real nice combination against the paint color.  Everthing works on the car; we drive it locally and to the visit our children.

Although the interior was in pretty good shape, I chose to improve on it by lining the floors with Dynamat, replace the carpet; replace a reproduction console with a real one, and install Legenday seat covers.   I have several pictures that show the work.  It is a manual window car; the seat belts are all there and functional, and the radio is a modern unit that was professionally installed in the stock location.  The drivers side window had a nasty scratch; I replaced it with a new one.

This is the real deal, Formula Firebird; 1973 is one of the most desirable and the most valuable years.   Please feel free to call me with any questions or set up a time to inspect and drive the car.   But, please do this before the bid ends, you will be bidding to buy.     Randy    770/634-3093

  I would like to answer a couple of common questions that were asked.   The bottom of the car has no rust; in fact, the undercoating is still present and in good shape (picture added).  I have also added pictures of the trunk; one with the original mat and one showing the clean and rust free floor.   The way to check for the original block in this car is to look for the VIN stamped into the lower front of the block.  The number is on the block; it is very clear and matches the VIN of the car.
