I just go wind of a nice original SD for sale this evening, boy I wish I had money. I could enjoy a car like that. All original, never been modified, even the original Uniroyal radials on it...

Why was I not born into a rich family who lived on about 50 acres with multiple storage buildings for old cars?

You're teasing us with no other details or photos....I suspect the asking price is closing in on or just over 6 figures.

Sorry, not trying to tease you guys. I'm actually trying to "broker" ( but not for personal monetary gain) a deal between the owner (friend of a friend here) and a prospective US buyer, (friend of a friend down there).

Can't tell you much about the car except it was sold new in Manitoba and is a pretty plain car, one owner.

Great time for a US buyer to come here to purchase, that is for sure.

Had the chance to own one back in 79-80 for considerably less than what they are worth now. Bought a 78 Bandit instead. My mistake!

Yes, it was bought new there, do you know the car? I haven't seen it yet but I'm told it came from there.

Seller's initials L.E. ? (possibly L.A.) I'm pretty sure it'll be his car. He bought it new while working at the dealership if I remember correctly. Nice guy too.

What price does he have on it?

Yes, he passed away a few weeks ago and the family has it.

So far no definite price but the impression I get is that they think it's worth a fortune, which it's not. I am not in touch with the family but rather with someone who is, and I told him that he should advise them to get an appraisal, a realistic, what-can-we-expect-to-get-for-it type of appraisal, not one for insurance.

He passed away?- That's too bad, he wasn't even that old. Somewhere in his 60's I'd guess. Sad to hear. cry

Les used to own Wheeler's Performance which I used to frequent. He also used to run a stock eliminator Camaro or Nova for awhile.

That Trans Am was untouched as far as I remember, a total survivor car.

Yes, as I recall he ran a pretty competitive 69 Camaro. It's been years since since I saw him race.

The T/A looks completely original, yes. Very plain, 74, automatic, 8 track player and that's about it for options, it's actually the least desirable SD of all, a 74 automatic. Still VERY cool cars though.

If you can call an SD undesireable...wink 

Carl there's a 74 Formula SD 455 here in Fredericton, been garaged for a long time. This picture is from Pennfield Raceway years ago.

CLICK HERE for SD 455 Registry. It shows 501 cars which is a heck of a lot more than I thought there would be. 165 73's and 336 74's.

I know, I was looking at it again the other night. Hadn't been on there in a while. It has an incredibly high percentage of the SD cars ever built.

My old project car from 10 years ago is in there. As much fun as it would have been to have an SD, restoring an extremely rusty car just because it was so rare just didn't appeal somehow.

I was surprised too that Les had passed away. I haven't seen the SD TA in years. That didn't take long to get the car up for sale.
