Good luck moving forward. I'm glad progress is being made.
That was the initial plan. However, I decided I wanted the keep a more traditional formula Firebird look.

Really?

As someone who owns a 71 T/A, 74 T/A and 76 T/A I have to say...I actually prefer the non spoiler look for the 70-73 birds.

I think the best looking car on the planet would be a 73 Formula with the Formula hood, wheel spoilers but without any rear spoiler whatsoever.

In my opinion...that is the right formula.

Door handles look awesome! How easily do they operate?

Don’t know yet. That pic was from the builder who is working on the car. I’m about 200 miles away from my builder.

PM me and I will send you his info
