Unable to open picture. I know of a guy in my hometown that has one of these, 429 Torino. How can I tell for sure it is a real 429 car? Thanks

Thunderjet is the lo-po 429 like Ford used in 69 Thunderbirds.

Sam, I think the "N" code 429's were rated at 360 HP,and the "J" codes (cobra jets) were rated at 370 hp.
