I sold my 94 z28 roughly 3 years ago and did not plan to own another 4th gen f-body. I got it in to the 12's and figured I could not afford to go faster and sold it. Yesterday I found the buy/car everyone dreams about. I just found a 95 formula with 30,000 miles and paid 5,500 for it. Bought it from the orginal owners son after the owner passed on. The car is like new outside of a cigarette burn on the rear drivers side seat. What I need is some info on this car. It is a 95 with a six speed. It vins out as a formula, but has no formula badging and a 110 speedo. From everything I have seen and read this car should have both the badging and 150 speedo. Any and all info appreciated.

Welcome back Jim, you can still see not much has changed around here, same questions still being asked.

 

Welcome back and congrats on a great car at a SUPERB price. What made you even look for it?

 

Man, did you steal that and give him 5500 on your way off GREAT DEAL!!!!!

 

welcome back, good score on the ride

 

oh, it should have the badging, but the 110 speedo just means it came with non z-rated tires from the factory.

 

I was shopping for a Typhoon and ran across the formula. I figured the tire deal was more than likely the explanation for the speedo, but thought it was odd for a formula not to come with z-rated tires. The lack of badging is intresting. I have been driving an svo mustang for awhile it is nice to have v8 torque again.

There are only two decals on the 93-97 Formulas, easy to remove. You are ready know why you have the 120 speedo, which also means you have the speed governor. Some other tell-tell sign of a 93-97 Formula are the V8 Tail lights, blank panel between the tail lights, and disk brake all the way around. TAs and Firebirds both had the bird on the panel. I have allot of info on my sight if you want to check it out.

 

I know there should be an emblem on the rear under the tail light. Where is the other.

thanks,
jim

 

Decals,

Rear passenger side bumper, and driverside headlight. They should read "Formula" only. The 93-94 cars had "Formula V8" decals and the 95-97 cars had "Formula" only.

 

great price...lets get some pics asap....congrats
