My 87 Formula 350 w/ RA2 for $400
Managed to get this bad boy off of Craigslist. Guy had it up for about $1500 but stated it wasn't running. Engine was rebuilt and housed with a Holley 750 carb. I bit the bullet and got him down to $400. Interior has some custom work done. Has a sunroof (no leaks), auto tranny, positive traction. Not 100% on the gears just yet. Sounds like a monster. Not sure of the internals either.
Picked it up 2 days ago. Been working on it. Found out it was the ignition coil
Haha. So now I need to replace a brake line and need to get the engine timed and I'll be on my way
What do you guys think? Also where should the timing be on this bad boy?
These are all I have at the moment. Will definitely upload more after a good wash.

Stock timing on my LB9 305 is 6* BTDC. Nice deal, the Ram Air hood alone is worth $400.

Heck of a deal, I look almost daily on craigslist in tampa and orlando and have never seen that car on it. What part of Orlando? I go out that way once in a while.
