This 1971 Pontiac Firebird Formula tribute is thoughtfully aggressive. While that phrase may seem odd, the pictures instantly let you know what that means. The orange paint has the vibrant look of a fresh application, which makes this one look like it could glow in the dark. And speaking of darkness, this trades the chrome in for a full blackout trim package, including a custom T/A-inspired hood bird. And we especially like how the upgraded Foose wheels follow the color theme, too. The aggression continues with the full Formula package upgrade that includes the flared body kit, rear spoiler, and hallmark twin-scoop hood. The interior gives you a driver-ready atmosphere that also utilizes custom upholstery to follow the color theme. And all this aggression is justified by what's under the hood. It's a fully-built 461 Pontiac stroker motor with fuel injection, aluminum heads, headers, and plenty more of the best performance parts. Plus, there are the right suspension upgrades to keep this a solid all-around driver. So check out the full details of a unique build done with all-around confidence.

We love this build for the way it seems to elevate the best of an era. This celebrates the more aggressive faces of the early 1970s cars with the full Formula body. The color reminds us of legendary Pontiac hues like Orbit Orange and Carousel Red, but now with an even more vivid metallic glow. And while the powerhouse has the classic Pontiac blue block and awesome shaker hood, the stroker upgrade means a larger displacement than even the Super Duty coupes! And of course, fuel injection and go-fast goodies make this one an even more impressive powerhouse. It all creates the kind of Pontiac that's fresh, vintage, distinct, and absolutely powerful. So if you're looking for a custom classic that's mean in style and thoughtful in its execution, then you know this one needs to go home with no one else but you. Call today!!!
