Default i'm not a ford guy,but.....

i came across this torino in my town.a 2owner car that has been sitting for 5 to 7 years or so.mostly inside,but outside the last few.i honestly have never seen a 70 torino in convertible so i scooped it up.the guy has owned it since 74! it's a 302 2bbl,power top,p/s,buckets,console and hidaway headlamps.i't a back burner deal since i have a few chevy projects going! one day when it was a balmy 40 deg.i power washed the outside,scrubed the top and waxed a small section of the 1/4.

I'm digging it.
That's a pretty rare car right there. Torinos are actually getting quite popular, if I were you, I'd hold on to that bad boy.
Good luck and enjoy.
