"Actual Match Race" 1969 440 'Cuda vs 1973 Firebird Formula 'SD-455'

I know this topic has to do with class racing for the most part. But in my time selling Pontiac parts (dealer) in the early/mid 80's, i met a collector of SD cars and Pontiac parts in general. This man could qualify for a "Hoarder's" episode these days. Seven storage locations of parts and cars, including his own 4000 sq ft house that you couldn't walk thru. He offere'd me a 73' SD Formula for 4K that needed body work. I declined :banghead:. His pride and joy was a Brewster Green 73' T/A auto with 40k on it. I have to tell you, that was a extremely strong car that ran mid 13's with it's factory tires & tune. I've driven it, and on the street, I don't know of any factory stock 340 car could run with it. Although it sad to compare a 100+ cube difference, you have to remember this was the low compression era for the T/A on the street.
