A dark teal '74 Formula 455 Ram Air, with white vinyl top and white interior, and no rear spoiler. It came up for sale at a decent price, but it had some lower body rust issues that I didn't know how to deal with back in those days. When I later learned those skills, I regretted letting that car get away - it would have been really sharp looking fixed up. Have never seen another one like it.
Kinda cool being able to buy something that I couldn't afford 30 years ago. At the time they wanted $4000 for it... I paid $19,000 more than that... inflation sucks.
