Default New to me Bird

I've been reading for a while here and finally bought my first Formula. It is an 89 242 LS, 502, Bravo 1.

Thanks for the compliments!
Her motor is supposed to be a full roller. The cam has a nice lope at idle. The PO said he had it up to 64 mph and was still pulling hard before he let off.
She does have bolster seats. We plan on using her in the Saginaw Bay and Higgins Lake so far. We are based out of Bay City and have friends with a cabin near Higgins. It was from Springfield, IL.
