Looks like im adicted to Pontiacs! Just picked up this 96 formula with tons of potential. The motor has a spun rod bearing and the trans lost 3 gear but it will all be fixed and have this beast back on the road. Below is a few pics of how it looked in its days of glory, its a little rough now, and a list of its mods.

Future Plans-updated 4/11/09
Well decided to get a little more aggresive with my upgrades so instead of a cc503 and bolt ons its getting a nice sized custom cam, a Lloyd Elliot grind to be exact
Cam specs out at 22x/22x @.050 .57x/.57x lift 10xLSA, so that with some LPP longtubes/ORY, magnaflow catback, electric cutout, ewp, 1.6 NSA rrs and the other supporting mods should push me into bottom 12s with how light this car is, its going to be a blast to drive and sound mean!
The pacesetter headers have been sold and will be replaced with stainless units. Replaced the used meziere ewp with a new unit from CSR. Its all starting to come back together though its taking me alot longer then i had hoped and im getting antsy to take it out.
One thing is for certain there will be a black 350z that will be hunted down once all is running good.
So went and took some pics of its current state, told ya it was a little rough.
Update 3/1/08
New motor
Started pulling it apart, pretty soon itll all be out and
the real build begins
Welp got it pulled, took waaay too long and more work then i expected but its out.
Magnaflow catback showed up today!
And a few more parts to make it go VRooooooM!
And the upgraded taillights
