Default 1972 Formula 455HO

The 1971 & 1972 Formula 455HO & Trans am were real beasts and quite a value compared to the 73 SD's. Under 100 72 Formula 455 HO, with 4spd built. The formula was a real sleeper, especially with steel wheels, caps, no stripes and sans a spoiler. They were comparable in performance to the better known marques built in the late 60's and handle extremely well.

I’ve always liked the stealth sleeper looks of no stripes or screaming chicken decals on the firebird formula.
