Over the last couple of weeks I’ve been going nuts on asking questions about Formula’s
Well, today after working on this deal for over 2 months, I brought it home
White Hardtop w/beechwood interior, auto, tilt, cruise, AC (134a) Wing, WS Delay
ALL STOCK… 75k miles on it
I’m the third owner. The car is originally from Lakeland Fl. via Appleton Wi. And now making its home in
Sussex Wi.
It has absolutely no rust on it, the trunk/frame rails “LOL” look new. The interior is a 9.0 only because the
passenger side dash vent has a small crack in it. The carpets are new looking as are the seats.
The gauge pod has just a “smidge” of warping, and the center console has just a touch also.
Everything works on it, cruise, air….etc!!
The car was in Lakeland until 1998, then it went to the Appleton Wi. area (not driven in the winter)
The 2nd owner only put 7k miles on it in 7 yrs. And hasn't driven it at all for 2 1/2 years other then
starting it and moving up and down his driveway.
Any parts that needed replacing were only replaced with GM parts. and it has new tires less then 2k ago.
It does need new dew strips (which he included with the car) and after the 100 mile ride home today,
I did feel a little vibration in the front end. When I got home I did a quick check on the front end.
It’s either a inner/outer tie rod, or might be a bad lower ball joint or all three ?? I’ll have to look more.
A odd thing happened on the ride home. The whole trip home the car shifted fine,
then, after getting off the freeway the transmission lockup solenoid stopped working. I had to pull over
an un-plug it the last 5-6 miles…..one more thing to fix…….
Anyway!! enough babbling …….here are a few pictures after a quick wash. The car has no wax on it at all.
I want to clay it first.
