Car: 1988 Formula convertible Engine: 305 TPI | Rare convertable
The guy, 88Convertable, I'd like to talk with you on your car. I have the exact same car for sale and would like to compare notes.
I tried attaching a pic, but it was too big to enter. Car can be seen @ www.autotrader.com as 88 Formula Convertable in IL.
Look forward to hearing from you. |

All original. Only thing I've done to it was install a temp sensor on the radiator that Willie helped me with over the phone when I first bought it about 2 years ago.

Car: 1989 Formy droptop/88 Deville Engine: L98 350 TPI Transmission: factory RWD, WS6 susp | Quote: Originally posted by 89raggtopp
All factory decals, ASC decals, ASC top instruction manual, window sticker, etc I have. Including documentation from ASC on number of conv. they made in 89. If anyone has doc on how many 5.7L were converted this would be great. I have read several postings and mag articles where they claim 50 5.7L verts were made. But no one can back this up with documentation, all hearsay.
Thanks,
Brent | Well, Hey I got the scoop from this here board there were 50 GTA, or 350 TPI's made for 1989 so I go with that as well. Seems as official as you can get.
I own one as well and the ASC info you have I'd like to see.

I have a 350 Formula drop top, share your ASC stuff!

Car: 1988 Formula convertible Engine: 305 TPI | I understand that the ASC FB converts, any year, are much more rare that the Camaro sister.
As Bill can attest, the FB converts, no matter what yr or engine are far and few between. You can cruise any street in any town and be hard to find yourself a 3rd gen FB convert B4 you see a Camaro vert.
Long live the 3rd gen FB vert,

Car: 92Z Engine: 6.6 Transmission: 6 | Wow, I feel like I just went through some camaro porn or something... nice pictures! I want a white one now.
We need an action shot: 
Some specs: 406SBC/LT4cam/Superram, T56, 4th gen rear and wheels and leather, 4Point rollbar and KB Subframe connectors. 12.08 ET on this street driven, lo-buget 89 octane setup. 420 ft/lb but loves street driving, very tame.
Heres a video (50 meg) from the rollbar-cam, going around IRP for a 2:04 lap: http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~dzug/indy...teVette-II.wmv
I'll have to take the vid down soon (edit-it's still there!). if you'd like to do more than just wax your car, follow the link at the end of the video
