Description of 1975 Ford Torino

Relisting due to a time waster. Please don't bid if you cannot pay.
Very presentable and can be driven as is to car shows. I have been driving it to work at least weekly as its an absoluteblast to drive and always gets attention. I was going to do a full restoration and replaced the starter, front shocks, all 4 coilsprings front and rear, front brake lines, a freeze plug and added anauxiliarytriple gaugepod and NOS clock to the dash. The rear has air shocks and its currently under 20lbs of pressure,
The fuelgauge was wrong so I replaced the sending unit with one from Dearborn Classics. It seems to be having issues so Dearborn Classics sent out another fuel tank sender which will also be included.
The front seats are from a 2003 Chrysler Sebring and the rear seat is from a Thunderbird. The interior was originallybrown but has been died black many years ago and is still very presentable. The front driver seat is power and the passenger is not.
The dash has been modified to take a modern head unit. I bought a used lower dash to take the car back to original. I also have a passengerdoor mirror that can be painted the right color. The door locks are problematic and stiff so I bought a NOS door lock and ignitionlock and key set which is included as pictured.
It drives very well with no shakes or wobbles with plenty of power and thedual exhaustsounds just right.
There is some rust in the trunk and also some quarter size areas that will require attentionon the bottom of the doors and trunk lid. The previousowner had the car for 4 years and mentioned that he did not do any rust repair or painting. As you can see from the pictures it still looks very good. The frame is solid and straight with some light surface rust in places.
The reserve price reflects the condition of the car as it's not perfect and does NOT have Air Conditioning.I was in the process of ordering an aftermarket AC unit from Vintage Air whichI would have done if I kept the car.
The period police siren, police radio, and red emergency light is included.
