Selling my 1981 Pontiac Firebird Formula.

$11k

Located in Fort Collins, CO 80525.

It has been an on and off daily driver for me for the last year.

Very reliable car. No rust.

265 v8, and TH350 trans.

Super clean interior.

Probably about 40k miles on it. Odo shows 36k but has become intermittently sticky in the last year. Definitely not rolled over!

Clean CO title. Passed emissions fine 1 year ago when I bought it. Has original catalytic converter still.

Older tires but in decent shape. Has a trans leak from the pan gasket, I have not fixed. Has a noisy power steering pump when engine is cold.

Great heater! Has AC, but not functional. 

Just a super fun driver and has been extremely reliable for me.

Also available though for sale separately for $1k.

A running 1975 Pontiac 400 motor and TH350 trans. I bought to swap the 400 into this car but never got around to it.

They used a Formula with that color scheme (W50 Graphics, Dark Maroon with Silver Metallic lower and red graphics) in an ad with Burt Reynolds in 81:

The one in the ad was a Turbo so it had different wheels and hood.   All I can say about your car is:

That seems cheap for such a nice car!
