Title: Time to post a Formula...
Post by: steamship on June 20, 2021, 04:11:14 PM
A while ago that I posted something because my Bird received some major improvements.
Today we had nice weather and I took a photo after car wash.

Thanks.
This was a new color in 1973 regatta blue (26).
Love it!

I’ve gotten a soft spot for formulas over the years. Especially the later 2nd gens. You don’t see many around or they’re T/A clones. I just think they’re cool. If I ever have the pleasure of owning another 2nd gen besides my 77 T/A I hope it’s a formy. That’s a fantastic looking car man.

Very sharp looking Formula. I don’t recall seeing this color before, it must not be very common. An early Gen II Formula is getting pretty rare,  I bet in Germany you really get a lot of attention.

Yes you are probably right. F-bodies are now very rarely to be found here, and the early models even more so.
The car is already very noticeable ...  :cool:
Regatta Blue was only available in the 73 and 74.
Over the years I have seen some Formis in that color for sale but - they are rare...
