Take off all the mods from the formula and transfer what you can to the T/A, then sell the formula. TA for the win.

I would keep the 94. Baller *** color on it and the stance makes the car. The fikse on it look damn good. Plus it cant get any better than having a paid off car.

Yeah that's Derek's old Formula. He sold it to Carmax and the current owner works at Carmax.

Personally, I think the LT1 Formula is the prettiest 4th gen (I've owned two of them) - especially lowered and with wheels like yours. But then the Firehawk hood on the 99 is gorgeous. It has to come down to what really counts - motor. LS1>LT1. Keep the 99.
