1987 Silver Formula

I posted up a few months back about my son wrecking his 88 formula.We have been searching of a good platform to donate the drivetrain into.We found it.
It is a Silver Formula..I have yet to find another one anywhere on the net.
that would be my son washing the 2 year grime off of it.
anyway,it has a buick 3.1 V6 in it with a busted head.Car needs some work but most of it will come from the wrecked FireChicken.

Re: 1987 Silver Formula

nice find. NO swap out that V6--its Chevy BTW---Buick never made a 3.1L---they had a 3300--which was FWD.

Maybe you mean 3.8L---is it carbed?

I Believe that Strip is Orange. I have the same strip on my Formula. Same bottom with the Charcoal, but the top of mine is white. I like it.

it is carb'd.
maybe it is a 3.8
whatever it is will be yanked and probably the 350 engine we have here that was built for an iroc z will go into it.
