Description of 1973 Ford Torino |
LISTING ONE 1973 FORD GRAN TORINO. WAS PAINTED UP TO LOOK LIKE THE TV CAR FROM THE SHOW. RUNS AND DRIVES GREAT, STRONG 351 CLEVELAND WITH AUTO TRANS. I BOUGHT THE CAR FROM A WOMAN IN 2004 IN ARIZONA, HAD IT SHIPPED HERE. IT DID HAVE SOME BODY WORK DONE BEFORE I BOUGHT IT, SO THIS IS NO SHOW CAR. REPLACED THE FRONT GRILL TO LOOK MORE LIKE THE TV CAR, HAD IT PAINTED RED/WHITE AND HAVE HAD A BLAST WITH IT. VERY FUN CAR TO DRIVE-GETS A LOT OF ATTENTION. THE BAD NEWS- DOES NEED SOME WORK. TRANS PAN GASKET LEAKS WHEN IT SITS OVER LONG PERIOD OF TIME ( WE FOUND THIS OUT WHEN WE STORED IT ) AND YOU MIGHT WANT TO GET THE VALVE COVER GASKETS REPLACED AS OIL WILL LEAK A LITTLE AND SMOKE WHEN IT HITS THE ENGINE. SOME GREAT NEW- CAR DOES HAVE A CHROME DUEL EXHAUST SYSTEM- AND LOOKS GREAT. ITS BEEN STORE IN CLIMATE CONTROL SHOWROOM-HAS NOT SEEN WINTER-ONLY TAKEN OUT ON NICE DAYS. REASON ITS GOING- I DON'T DRIVE IT ANY MORE, AND JUST DON'T HAVE THE TIME TO WORK ON IT. IM NO MECHANIC AND UNLIKE SOME CAR GUYS, I DON'T ENJOY WRENCHING FOR FUN. IT NEEDS A NEW LOVING HOME. I DID JUST INSTALL A NEW FUEL PUMP LAST WEEKEND... FYI. ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE FEEL FREE. I WILL HELP WITH TRANSPORTATION AS MUCH AS I CAN BUT ITS WINNERS RESPONSIBILITY TO MAKE ARRANGEMENTS WITH A TRANSPORT COMPANY. 300.00 DEPOSIT WITHIN 48 HOURS OF AUCTION END. PLEASE NOTE- MEMORABILIA DOES NOT COME WITH THE CAR. NO SIREN, NO PROPS. ( WE DO HAVE THE RED LIGHT IF WINNER IS INTERESTED ) THE CAR HAS BEEN IN SEVERAL LOCAL CAR SHOWS CONVENTIONS AND AUTOGRAPHED BY ACTORS FROM THE SHOW AND MOVIE. BRANDE RODERICK & FRED WILLIAMSON FROM THE MOVIE SIGNED THE TRUNK, AS DID ANTONIO FARGAS AKA HUGGY BEAR AND DON PEDRO COLLEY ( FROM THE VOOD DOO ISLAND EPISODE.) ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO ASK. CAR IS TO BE LISTED LOCALL, SO AUCTION MAY END EARLY IF SOLD. also- even though the car is signed, im not using the signatures as a selling point- i will remove them if the winner requires them gone. please look over the pictures, i installed bucket seats and took out the bench, added the center console and after market radio with speakers ( great sound ) some of the chrome molding has dents ( not my doing-got it that way ) and had intentions on replacing but those are hard to come by-new or used. just want the potential bidders/winner to understand this is not a show car, but has a lot of potential for the right person who wants to restore/rebuild a very nice car. I LISTED THE MILEAGE OFF THE SPEEDOMETER - IM GUESSING THAT IT HAS GONE OVER ONCE FOR A CAR BEING 44 YEARS OLD. |
