Re: what year is this Torino?
OK you knowledgable Ford guys, you prompted me to ask a question.....
I recently ran across a 70 Torino for sale parked near the edge of a field (yeah, I sort of live in a country setting).
It had one of those "best offer, no info" kind of signs in the window (don't you just hate that?) which immediately makes me not want to call......
Anyways, from my quick glance the car appeared to be nothing too exciting: faded gold-beige sort of paint with no stripes (looked liked possibly original paint), automatic, ratty interior, 351 emblems on the fenders. What peaked my curiosity was the fact it had a shaker hood (if that is Ford-correct terminology, I'm used to my Cuda's) but didn't have the scoop sticking out of it, just some sort of mesh screen over the opening....
So my question is - should I go check this car out again and get more details? Could this be a significant worthwhile project for somebody (not me, I'm trying to finish several of my current cars) if I were to pick it up for a song? Is there anything specific I should look for if any of you guys are interested?
Thoughts?? Charlie
