It truly shows that you get it — understanding how much my dad and our family love this car and how much joy it’s brought us for more than 52 years. It’s clear you were able to see the car through my dad’s eyes.
During his life, he sold…”

“NO. WAY. !!!! I am… just… floored. I’ve been staring at pictures of this car all week… and Formula SD 455s for years. Talking my wife’s ear off about how special this car is. I can’t wait to connect with the @seller. I’ll be honored to take care of this Formula for the next 30/40/50 years… as far as I make it. @bkrug @BaronVonZeppelin, everyone else who chimed in with all the great info and stories, thank you guys so much! I truly appreciate it as a buyer and member of this community.…”

“The college and prep school stickers on the rear glass are almost mandatory on a sled like this. Such a cool ride!
Now about those eye-watering service and labor receipts…..”

“As the 3rd owner of this wonderful car I can tell you it was my pride and joy from roughly 2009-2014. All records and receipts from Esoteric and San Antonio Texas were mine. Car was a later production VIN so had a couple unique and relatively rare options … Rosso scuderia brake calipers … only available in the later production run as many cars had Rosso corsa calipers even though the exterior was spec’d in Rosso scuderia … one of those details that ‘if you know you notice’
Also…”

“For those who are about to restore one of these models some advice. One of the most frustrating part of the restoration was obtaining the right size rubber souround for the door opennings. Tried twice from a well known UK supplier and they both failed. Found a Cicogna made part at a German supplier which finally worked.”

“I have such a weird taste in cars. I just received an alert for an 8k mile 540i 6 speed and this 74 deville. Hilariously enough I’ve owned both.”

“I was in charge of the 427 crate engine program western region for GM parts this is absolutely perfect!!

If anybody…”

DinoAAAA commented on GM Performance Parts Anniversary Edition Chevrolet 427 Crate Engine
“In my opinion, the original, first series “sports saloon” Jaguars are the purest and best. These are the ones you will see at Goodwood! I love the center instrument cluster, like the XK cars. I also think the smaller windows and extra wood interior appointments work extremely well with these cars. OK, the far more commonly surviving MK 2 cars are just fine in their own right, but just like in the consideration of the E type evolving variations, I remain firmly in the first original series…”

“Toyota really built them well back in the day. Not only that, but they’re not too big, not too small and look good. New owner will be happy. GLWTA”

“I own the same car, even down to the 1592 twin cam and automatic transmission. It was built 6,028 cars later than this one, currently has 178,408 miles, and is our daily driver. I got it from the original owner’s family, and am technically the 4th caretaker. Since I also specialize in Fiats, I have serviced it mostly from new.
We take it on club tours, and it’s comfortable at an indicated 70+ mph. In 2024 we won worst in class at the concours d’lemons in Seaside California, and last year we…”

“I’d like to thank everyone who joined the conversation. There were many great comments, and I learned a lot about my car. This BaT process has been so cool for me to be a part of. It’s just been fun – maybe the only fun way to let go of this car. Here are a few last pics. Thank you all!!”

“I worked on the development of these back at the start of my career as an engineer with Isuzu in Cerritos, CA. The prototype from Japan was purple and RHD which got lots of stares and thumbs up Super fun cars to drive. Drove it to Lake Tahoe through many fun roads. Handled pretty well for a SUV.”

D_Reed commented on Fuel-Injected, 400-Powered 1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am
“One of the things I really like about this is that, at its heart, it’s just so simple. Not like the Italian limited production barchetta cars where everything is unobtainable or very expensive. A T Series MG set up is the personification of of basic spark, fuel, air motoring. Like the upkeep on TD. That should bring it more into the range of folks who lust after the style but have been afraid of the reality of finding mechanical spares. Opportunity rarely knocks as loud as this one, IMHO!”

“I owned SN 5077 many years ago. The 4-liter engine pulls like a locomotive. There is comfortable seating for 4 adults. I think it is the best of the 2+2 classic Ferraris. You will never regret owning it. – Keith Martin”
