I've known about this car for 12 years, but the guy would never let me go look at it.
today was the day. and he sold it to me. sad to say its is a parts only car now.
its a 1974 all #'s Formula 400 4speed. ;D
I go back in May to get it. its still frozen in the ground. I will keep the hole drive line. the Hurst t-top parts. the back glass and all the trim. it will be stripped of all the parts. everything will come off. I just cant keep the body, its an old junk yard. so I dont get the title.

Nice score! Too bad you couldn't get the title. I really like the 1974 Firebirds. Too bad you have to wait. George

Cool find, just a shame it took twelve years for them to let it go. Based on what we have seen you do I am sure you will get plenty of use out of it.

Small back window,' So an early car. Anyone could get T-Tops installed aftermarket with those Hurst/Pacific T-Tops. I had them installed on my 1972 Firebird back in 1977. George

Doug I have seen your work on your other cars. I'm sure you could bring it back from the grave.

picked it up and parted it. all the parts are in boxes and on the shelf now. had to take the body back to the guy so he could scrap it. I really tryed to get it with the title. but now I have every thing to build another 4 speed car some day.
