A BAD BAD NIGHT THE DEATH OF MY FORMULA
A BAD BAD NIGHT THE DEATH OF MY FORMULA
LAST NIGHT AT 1:30am me and my friends were driving around when a green explorer ran a yield sign and ran over my hood and then spun into the rear quarter of my car also. The hood is bent in half the front end no longer exists, my axle is bent, roof twisted, rear left quarter is toast and the spoiler fell off completly, my driverside door is in the shape of a C. This was my baby with 49,000 miles on her but shes gone.
sorry, hope you buy anouther 3rd gen

A guy around here has a 1992 Formula 350 with belive it or not only 9,000 original miles White with grey interior. For $10,000
o.b.o. I think I am going to buy it hopefully soon. My car was rare but one with a 350 is even better.

I jsut heard your message that you left this morning. I am sorry to hear about that Cody. Just be glad that your friends and yourself are OK. That really sucks becuase the car was pretty low mileage too. Hopefully you will be able to pick up that white formula for a replacement.

Crap! Totaling an average car is one thing, but Formula's were always produced in limited numbers. I'm glad you're getting her body back to make use of her still intact parts.
A 1992 Formula 350 with T-tops is the rarest of the rare. Don't let thet car go!

Well the Formula 350 sold yesterday, but I found a new toy 1992 RS TBI 5-Speed with 36,000 miles on her. Same color as my Formula and a 5-speed with t-tops. Going to drive it at 1:30 today And the engine and harness in my car are intact no cuts the truck basically drove over the front of my car killing the radiator forward + the hood everything sits a little to the right but not harmed.

Well the RS was nice but needs some work, the nose is cracked and the power steering pump is crap. My other option is a 1997

I was thinking about S trucks the other day. It would be fun to make an AWD one. With AWD rally cars being the new rage it could be fun.

It was only steel and plastic but it was damn nice steel and plastic. My friends are just as mad as I am too. One drives a 90 IROC and the other drives a 92 Firebird TBI both of which are sweet cars. I don't care how small of a part you need let me know because I want my car to live on somehow it's not going to sit in a junkyard. I will start taking it apart next week. Once again thanks for everything guys Cody
Hey Cory- If noone's got dibs yet, I might be interested in some drivetrain stuff. Thanx
