1971 Pontiac Firebird Formula - Re-Formula-ted
1971 Pontiac Firebird Formula - Re-Formula-ted
James Parker's Formula went from family-owned '70s custom to restored stocker in just 26 yearsBack in 1977, James Parker had more drivers living under his roof than he had cars to drive, and with his daughter Layna preparing to leave for college, he had to get another set of wheels. Fortunately a fellow Abilene, Texas-resident had a great Pontiac for sale-this '71 Formula, which was a lightly used car in 1977, still very clean, and with low mileage. Its 300-horse 400 was backed by a Muncie four-speed and a 3.42-geared Safe-T-Track rear-and that combo got James interested. It also had a long list of options, including console Rally gauges, variable-ratio power steering, A/C, Soft-Ray glass, visor mirror, roof molding, power brakes, electric rear-window defroster, Formula wheel, AM/FM stereo, 8-track, Rally II wheels, power windows and locks, HD air cleaner, recessed wipers, custom trim group, custom seatbelts, F70x14 white-letter tires, and front and rear floormats. It cost just $1,200 Jimmy Carter-era dollars to put it in James' driveway.
