I've decided to sell my next project vehicle. I purchased this 1988 Formula with plans on building it into an LS1 powered drag car. I've come to realize that I won't have much time to build another project vehicle like this, especially after seeing how much is involved during my '69 project.

The car was formerly owned by Johnny Hunkins, former Editor of GM High Tech Performance magazine (now at Popular Hotrodding). The car was featured several times in the magazine, then known as "Project Magnum TPI"

Here are some former articles of the car:

The car currently sits on my trailer, where it has been for the last 5 or so months. I've never even had it off of the trailer it was delivered on.

No engine
No transmission (was originally an auto tranny car)
No wheels (just some junkyard rollers)
No brake calipers or rotors

Highlights:
The interior is immaculate, fully restored and looks brand new.
6-point rollbar installed (good for 10.00 ET)
Hotchkis lower control arms
Hotchkis adjustable panhard rod
Hotchkis front and rear swaybars
Hotckhis lowering springs
Hotchkis strut tower brace
Bilstein front and rear shocks
3" stainless "two on the left" SLP catback

Everything else appears to be stock (including rearend and torque arm)

The car is very complete minus the engine/tranny, someone could swap in another TPI engine/tranny and have a cheap roller easily.

Not sure how many miles on it, didn't really care since it was going to be my drag car. The body is straight, and someone could have a very cheap platform to start with for a drag car. With a cheap paint job, it could look almost new again.

Here are photos of it when it had wheels on it:

I'm selling the car for what I paid for it: $2,000 FIRM

I also have a like-new set of 15x3.5 and 15x10 Weld Racing Pro-Stars with brand new front tires and nearly new 26" drag slicks, that I will sell to the buyer of the car for an additional $750 cash. This deal is only for the buyer of the car, as I can use these wheels/tires on my '69 Camaro too.

Car is here in Houston, I can deliver it locally.
