Re: what year is this Torino?
That was my first car... 1970 Ford Torino, Morning Gold w/White and Olive Green guts, 302 w/2bbl. In the mid-80's, it was still a cool car to be seen on the high school parking lot. Fortunately, the local junk yard had about 4-5 torinos/ falcons with good trunk parts. Long story to follow on that!

Re: what year is this Torino?
If it's an M-code 351-4, it's rare. I have production figures at home. Off the top of my head, I think around 97 were 4-speed M-codes, and probably a couple hundred were automatics. I think 3939 in total were made starting with the 302.
Regarding the Cleveland vs. Windsor thing, I think there may be the possibility that some of the 2bbl. cars were Windsors, but all 4bbl. cars were Clevelands.
