Selling my '71 Torino GT. $17,900
http://fredericksburg.craigslist.org/cto/4417077626.html
This is an original Virginia car. I purchased the car from Carlisle at Ford Nationals off of a guy that had just bought it himself. He purchased the car from a woman here in Virginia that inherited the car from her mother. Her mother was the original owner of the car and it was originally purchased in Virginia.
Original GT "M" code 351C 4v car still has the original motor and original C6 trans.
Just over 45,000 original miles.
The paint job on the car was a respray done by the original owner. It was a budget respray and is showing typical signs of wear. If you look closely you can see some alligatoring of the paint on one of the fenders. It is a good driver quality paint job but not a "show car" paint job.
Since I've had the car I have done the following:
I changed the interior from the original Ivy Green to black.
Got rid of the original bench seat and installed Procar Elite Lumbar bucket seats and recovered the back seat.
The originial dash pad was cracked so I installed a black cover-lay over it.
Installed new ACC cut pile carpet with Mass Back.
Custom center console for the car with two Autometer gauges (the gauges have not been hooked up yet).
I swapped out the old radio and installed a new Retrosound radio.
I pulled the motor and trans, cleaned and resprayed the engine bay and cleaned up the motor.
Installed a new Edelbrock Performer intake.
Holley Street Avenger 670cfm carb.
New MSD Ready-to-Run distributor.
New MSD wires.
New MSD Coil.
Aluminum valve covers and air cleaner.
Chrome oil pan.
Chrome water pump.
Chrome alternator.
New fuel pump.
Five spoke Ridler wheels (18x8 front and 20x8.5 rear).
New Waldron's 2.5" exhaust system.
New Pypes Performance mufflers.
New power steering control valve.
New power steering pump and hoses.
New power steering ram arm.
New inner and outer tie rods, strut rod bushings and idler arm bushings.
The car originally had manual front drum brakes. I upgraded the brakes to stock style front power disc with '70 Torino spindles.
New refurbished brake booster.
New master cylinder.
New hard and soft brake lines for the font, and refurbished proportioning valve.
I cut 1/2 coil off of each coil spring to lower the front end slightly.
New chrome trans pan.
New rear trans seal.
New front and rear u-joints.
There are some minor dings on certain areas of the car but nothing major, just cosmetic.
