Thanks for watching and a HUGE thank you to my subscribers. It's nice when someone appreciates your work! - Авто та транспорт
When I was younger,I owed a 76 Torino with a 460 c6 auto transmission,after that I had a 75 Torino with a 351w now I'm rebuilding a 73 Mach 1.
My first car was a 75 elite model 351 Windsor my Dad gave it to me i wish ife never have let that car go
My first car was a solid 75 Gran Torino back in 1995. I managed to hold onto it until about 5 years ago when I sold it to a kid who’s put so much work into it and given it the love I didn’t have time for.
Best Ford Torino video in a while . Took my drivers test in a 1974 Gran Torino . And still have that car.
Thank you much and thanks for sharing!
I'd love to see that car, great memories for you
I've owned a 1970, 1973, 2 74's and 2 76's. I love this car!
Thanks for watching!
My 71 GT in medium goldenrod with a 351 clev. 11 years and never a problem. Changed oil every 2000 mi. After mkt A/C and radial tires made that car much better on long trips.
Bias ply tires were pretty awful on every car
Growing up, a neighbor had a beautiful ‘68 GT428 CJ, black with gold C stripes. As a kid it always got my attention as it rumbled past our house. I always listened as Bob turned onto another street and chirped the tires as it shifted from 1st to 2nd. His kids loved it and they had plenty of stories about dad squealing the tires. It influenced me enough that a couple of years later I bought a used ‘69 Acapulco Blue Mach 1 428 CJ 4 speed and made my marks on the streets!
Thanks for Sharing!
I'm sorry to say this but you left out the Ranchero just had to say but overall great UA-cam video
@@Michael-ri2eh That's a another video in and of itself that will get done this year.
I had a 69 Cobra Torino. 428 SCJ. It was awesome. Lots of differences between the 428 CJ and SCJ. Possibly a topic for a future show!
Thanks for watching!
I've owned several 70's Fords and they were all great cars, I had a 70 and 71 Maverick, a 70 GT Ranchero and still have a 70 Mach I with a 351C4V, 4 speed, shaker hood, louvers, A/C, and the original yellow and black paint in excellent condition, you just don't see many Torino's around anymore.
I owned a 1972 Gran Torino Sport with the shaker hood and a black top (the sporty coupe one). I truly enjoyed driving that car. I had to sell it in 2001 and it was in impeccable shape and low miles. Sudden changes and I had to sell it for $3500. Lucky father and son drove from Detroit to Charleston, SC to buy it. Wishing they are still driving it 🏆
My favorite (and my fathers favorite Ford). Dad had 1970 Torino GT. I learned to drive in that car and the 429 SCJ was a real tire shredder. I will alway remember looking over the hood at that breather. It was a thing of beauty.
Well that was pretty wild, the first side shot of the red Torino SCJ was my car back when I owned it back from 2008 till 2015. It was an all original 429 SCJ 4-speed with only 24,600 miles on it when I sold it. I was the 6th owner, the 5th owner did a DMV search of all previous owners, so car had all documents showing all previous owners, years of ownership, mileage, and price of sale. Car also had original build sheet and paper work from original dealership that sold it. I've been lucky enough to have been able to keep tabs on it as it as gone through 3 more owners. It now is on it's 9th owner, whom I became friends with on F/B after he posted " look what I just added to my collection " I commented back, that used to be my car ! He told me the mileage hasn't changed much...only has 24,700.
Joe, You are very lucky to know where your car is currently. I have no idea where any of my past cars are and it's not for a lack of looking. I stupidly did not retain any of the serial numbers. I did track down the car i owned when I 19 in the mid 2000's however it was a complete basket case and would have been a major restoration. Thanks for sharing!
My college room mate ordered a S&H Torino with the 460 engine and bench seat. I remember the day he took delivery, and it most certainly came with aluminum slot mags. The car was a real dog when it was stock, but we swapped in lower gears, opened up the exhaust and installed an aluminum intake with a Holley carb. It ran much, much better. He still has the car but it had not been run in some time when I last saw him.
Those cars are popular and the value has gone up especially for Factory cars. Thanks for watching!
I came close to buying a 76 Torino that came off TV show back when I was 17 but I couldn't get dealer to come down any more I was short around $600 bucks it had a 400 four barrel
@@larrybettie7153 An actual show car would be worth a ton right now.
Yea dude it would bring good penny and they ordered 1,000 76 Gran Torino after the second season I think they used few 75 Gran Torino mainly two the one Starsky drove and one that ran beside them with cameras the 75 had flat chrome mirrors and 76 had red racing mirrors
Yeah a guy we ran with had the 460 SH. There was a basic one in town-351 I guess. The 460 seemed to have something special in its stance, or whatever that it really stood out from the plain Jane SH.
Man, the reaction of people when we cruised, was incredible
I had a 74 2 door 351 Windsor. It was my first car, used paid for by my dad. It was a great year for me and my friends!
My first car - 1969 Torino GT with the 302. Drove it for 212,000 miles
Having had a 2021 Mach 1 and stupidly selling it and regretting every moment since 😞 … Today I found a brand new 2022 on the ground in Grabber Blue pretty well built and actually paid $3000 under MSRP 102 miles from my house. When there’s a new purple color 2023 30 miles from my house being sold at a scum dealer with NO HANDLING package for a whopping $5K market addendum some people just never learn …😊
The Market is adjusting. That dealer with the addendum might be living with that car quite a while. Thanks for watching!
Imagine having a 69 428 c.j. drag pack special. Yeah I feel real stupid.
Older guy down the road from me has that king cobra snake!!! Badass car!!!!
Loved this - had its twin a '69 Mercury Cyclone in high school.
Thanks for watching! Cyclones are very cool cars.
Definitely the 70 and 71 with Hideaway headlights were the best- looking Torino made made
I'm restoring 1 of the 1000 produced S&H Torino's for my collection...took 45 years to finally own one and Yes it will be driven/enjoyed like it should be....
That's awesome! Thanks for sharing!
1305 were built.
luv Starsky and Hutch....great car. ..ICONIC ..
Incredibly detailed video full of fantastic information. Keep em coming Tony!
Thank you sir! It is appreciated!
I love the 69' Cobra with Formal Roofline, vinyl top, bucket seats with Torino GT interior upgrades the best of all of them.
I currently have the 68 fairlane base model my Mom bought new on 5-4-68. Lime gold met, parchment interior, vinyl top, 289, c4, 2 door hardtop. Love that car!!!!
That's awesome thanks for sharing!
The base engine for the GT was the 302 2V. In 1968.
Early 1968 GT came standard with bucket seats with the bucket seats becoming a mid-year option.
I has 1968 GT Fastback. It was my first car. I did a lot of research on these cars a long time. I actually still have the 1968 ad shown here briefly with the picture of the black fastback with gold c-stripe.
My car was Lime Gold with reflective black c-stripe and two tone ivy gold metallic bucket seat interior with center console. 302-2V with automatic transmission and an 8" rear with 2.79:1 gears.
Not a fast car but it was faster than a friend's 1970 Monte Carlo with 350 2 barrel carb and automatic and routinely beat local 1987-88 Monte Carlo SS and 5.0 TBI L F-bodies on the street and highway back in 1988-90.
I only messed with the timing and had headers and dual exhaustcand a 2500 stall Fairbanks converter installed by previous owner at that time. Later a mild 351W was installed and I could keep up with the LT1 F-bodies on the highway during the early 1990s.
Of course it was my favorite car. It was my first car.
My little brother wrecked and I could never find another I could afford.
The 289 was used in early 68's because of the UAW strike. The 302 mid year addition. Thanks for watching and sharing!
@@TonysFordsandMustangsMy '68 Mustang Fastback was built in Nov '67 and came with a 2V 289. Do you know in which month the 302 was introduced?
@@stephenholland5930 I do not and from what I understand it wasn't an exact date. The 302 was rolled out as they became available. There was a a UAW strike in 67 that delayed things as well.
I own the 1971 Grabber green Cobra pictured at the 15:11 mark.. little surprised to see it show up in this video❤😂
It was on an Auction site and it looks really sharp. Congrats on the car.
I had a 73 grand Torino sport with sports roof 351 Cleveland Cobra Jet 4bbl, I had it bored it .030 over hooker big tube headers and a posi rear end put 355 gears in it . This was one bad ass street rod it pulled 455 horses. Had a great time on the streets with it.
Good stuff. I hope the video gets the views it deserves.
You and me both! Thank you and thanks for watching!
I am currently restoring my Dad's 1972 Gran Torino Sport...it was the first new car he ever bought. It is a twin to the Eastwood car...I started the restoration in January and have a two year window for completion.
That's a very awesome car. Best of luck and thanks for watching!
Great guide and story! Which man that is massive and seems to me as big as any muscle car on sale today! Which being born in 1995 I only knew of these as old cars never knew their name so thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for watching!
One of my aunts used to have a 1973 Gran Torino. It was yellow and drove very well. She still remembers that car and wished that she still had it.
I've had 6 Torinos, starting from my '68 convertible, going to my '74 station wagon. Never had a '68 - '69 Cobra or fastback, but I liked them.
Thanks for watching!
My first car was a 72 Gran Torino. Contrary to what was said, it was a 4 door hardtop. A nice car, especially for a first car. I bought it used in 1979 and paid $400.
Then it was a 1971, no 4 door hardtops after then. The 1972-76 doors have frameless glass, and there is a B pillar in this generation Ford mid-size cars,
@@tomcat630 The 72 to 76 models were called 4 door pillared hardtop. Framless doors with a slim b post. I have a 1972 Gran Torino 2 door hardtop and had a 72 Mercury Montego MX 2 door hardtop as my first car. I wish I still had the Montego. My parents bought that car new on May 22, 1972.
I had a Maverick in the 70's...loved that car.
So much great info on a car that should be talked about, thanks loved it
Thank you for watching Tim!
Great job on the video 👍
Thank you! 👍 Victor!
Great vid, could listen to this history lesson all day
Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for watching!
I took my families 1971 Grabber blue Torino with the 4v Cleveland to my senior prom, didn't have the same success as you did though. My Dad bought and restored it for my Mom to drive when my sister and I were little kids and when we got older she "downsized" to a 67 mustang for herself to drive around in. My dad and I rebuilt the driveline to be a bit spicier for the drags and he's been racing it for the last 20+ years. She's getting to be in need of a another restoration, and I hope that it will be passed to me to keep it going in the future so I can make some of the same summer memories with my family as I had a kid....but with a 5 speed instead of the C6. My Dad also has a 68 390 4 speed Fairlane that he's done up like Pearson's car that he drives around to shows during the summer as well.
Thank you sharing your story! You have a lot of history there with Fords and it sounds like almost all of it is positive. Prom was always a dice roll. ;)
your channel is such a gem, I remember how a few years ago I was reading articles about Turin on Wikipedia, and now a person is telling me about them
Thank you very much and thanks for watching!
Amazingly beautifully done , I looooooove information especially on classic Fords so it was a delightful experience thank you so much for all the work put towards making this video .
South Australia 🇦🇺
Thanks you for watching and the kind words it is appreciated!
I enjoyed this video. Very interesting and entertaining!
Thank you very much!
EXELENT VIDEO!
Thank you very much!
This is a great, comprehensive review of the Torino. I always loved the Gran Torino, especially the 72. Closest I ever came to owning one was taking a clapped out 72 Sport (Sports Roof) on a test drive from the used car section of a Ford dealer. It was dark green and had been someone else’s project. Had a 351C 2V that had long tube headers, glass packs, and an open element air cleaner. The hood scoop had been unblocked. Open rear end (as determined from the rubber I laid after getting far enough from the lot). Air shocks mags rounded it out. I don’t know if the motor was the original. It was a hoot to drive. Needed work. Some rust. AC long gone. Over priced for the mid 80s. I was I college and couldn’t afford and didn’t need a project car so due to the price, I passed it over. It popped up a few months later at a greatly reduced price but I was preoccupied.
Glad you enjoyed the video! The 72's haven't gone up in price near as much as the 68-71's have. It's neat body style. Thanks for watching and sharing!
Tony is your channel a good one, did you pick the name from the old MM&FF days. It reminded me of the magazine that I always enjoyed. Thank you for bringing good content to the table.
Matt, Thank you and thanks for watching. If I did it wasn't a intentional. There are a lot of channels out there already when I started a year and half ago. I really miss magazine and held on to many car mags from back in the day. Muscle Car Review was one of my favorites.
My uncle across the road had a blue 1974-76 Gran Torino 4 door sedan with a black hard top. When got a Tempo and we needed a second car in the early 90s we bought it off him.
I drove it my junior year of high 90-91.
We sold it for $500 after a jeep rear ended me and pushed the steel bumper up into the taillight and corner body
Lot's of great info although I was hoping to see something on the rare models such as the Torino Cobra Twister Special and the Torino N/W editions. You are obviously very knowledgeable on Torinos and hope you can do a follow-up. Thanks for all your time and effort.
Thank you for the kind words and for watching. I considered adding the specials editions but really those cars are Sales District specials that are regional. Plus I had 40 hours into that video as it was. I will circle back around at some point in the future with a video that covers special editions. A lot of those marketing programs also cover Mustangs as well such as the Twister.
Excellent production
Thank you!
Good video Tony! I rode in a 1970 GT 351C Torino , 1968 GT 428CJ and owned a 1973 Torino Sport with a 351w. it was the smoothes riding car I've driven.
I did watch the movie Grand Torino. 🎬 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thanks again and thank you for watching!
Great channel! I just found it & subscribed! I'm now binge watching your videos, Ford is my car brand of choice & owned nearly all models with the exception of just a few, Torino, Maverick & Pinto come to mind. I was mainly a Mustang guy with four door Ford's & Mercury's used & loved as my daily drivers, I owned every body style Stang except for the 69, 70, 86 & up. Good luck with your channel!
Thank you very much for the kind words and welcome to my channel! Glad to have you along for the ride.
What a great video
Thank you very much! It is appreciated!
I had a 72 Grand Torino , a left over model in 73. What a car!
I think the 1972 Torino styling was the best. I liked your personal story at the end. Great informative video!
Thank you for watching and I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Very cool . I had a 74 Grand Torino Sport 351 Winser in high school. Good times
Thanks for sorting out what can be a very confusing series. My parents bought a new Gran Torino Squire in 1973. It was traded for a new 1976 Gran Torino wagon. My Dad ran that until around 1987. I would love to find either one of these cars.
Thank you and thanks for watching!
One of My favorite Ford's.
Owned a used 72 Gran torino 400 V8 and loved it was in great shape when i sold it for a new car lol ... Great video reall enjoyed..
Thanks for the kind words and thanks for watching!
Back in the day my mom had a 1976 Gran Torino and I always thought that car was so cool!
Your were correct! Your Mom's car was indeed cool.
Great video. I owned a 68 Fairlane 500 sportsroof red/red interior with the 302 2 barrel. This was back in 84-85 and I loved racing the well off kid's in their new Mustang GT's and beating them easily with the first Ford that I had ever bought. (BTW I paid 125 bucks for it) one summer of total abuse and 28 thousand miles on top of the 165,000 she had when I got her I burnt up the rear end and cooked the c4. It's a car that'll hold a special place in my heart for one wicked cool summer
That's awesome! Thanks for sharing!
Great video my first car was a 75 Elite
I bleed Ford Blue so I'm glad I found this channel. Just subscribed too.
Well done on the history of the Torino. Thanks!
Thank you very much! Subscribing is the greatest compliment one can give to a creator!
Owned a '68 and a '72 with the '68 being my favorite.
I like everything about the 68 LTD beautiful car
The 302 was initially the standard engine in 1968 GTs, and the first V8 option on others. At midyear, they reverted to the 289 as there was a shortage of 302s due to the big strike in the fall of 1968.
I learned to drive in my dad's '69 Torino 428 CJ 4 speed. Wild looking back, it had a device in the trunk from the factory that replaced the air cleaner, it had a flap that would go up into the hood scoop on acceleration.
That's an awesome car to learn to drive on. Thanks for watching!
🫡🙌🏽🙏🏽😊 awesome
Thank You!
Love me some Torinos! The fastbacks are awesome looking, and they are roomy.
I built the AMT 69 Torino Cobra 1/25 scale model kit a year and a half back... Hoping to locate more Torino kits to build and add to my collection someday...
I had a 73 and drove it to Texas and back no problem. Bronze with a stripe
Found my Fairlane Cobra back in 76 after I got out if the service. Still have it, fun car, can shows and nice days I take it out.
That's quite awesome! Thanks for sharing!
My late aunt once had the 1968 Fairlane!
I like the ‘70 and ‘71 429 SCJ with the hidden headlights and shaker hood scoop.
Plus, the Torino nameplate is one of my all time favorite cars from Ford, right up there with the Mustang ❤
I have the 1974 Gran Torino Elite love it
Lots of interest in a interesting car
I think for me one of the best small blocks from the 260 302 351. my dad love ford's motors he even got my mother on Maverick grabber what a 250 6.put THE BOSS 302 ordered out with 331 worked the Boss from top to bottom. Even today that got you attention pulling the wheels 1st 2nd and that was 1979.
Thanks for all the memories I'll never forget them or you 🚦🏍️🏎️
Thank you for watching Joseph!
I drove my 74 dark blue, white vinyl roofed, 4 door Gran Torino through a corn field. Handled it like a champ.
That's awesome! Thanks for sharing!
Brilliant video! And of course the '72 Gran Torino was also featured in the epic Barry Newman movie, "Fear is the Key" where his "stolen" GT was all but fit for the scrap yard at the end of the chase!!
Thank you so much and I have never seen that movie. It has been added to my search list!
my first car was from my grandfather, 71 Torino in Ford green. He put air shocks on rear to lift it so he would weigh it down with luggage for when they were snowbirds and travelled from NY to FL. had a 351 Cleveland, if i remember correctly. Engine would get so hot while idling that rain would immediately steam and hood stayed dry until there was heavy rain. I-95 in Miami was not good as it overheated all the time.
God bless you and thank you
Thank you Anthony!
My first car was a 72 Torino wagon. It was my parents car first. learn and took my drivers test in it 1974. I bought from them in 1979. It had 200,000 miles on for $25.00. I put a new timing chain and rebuilt the 203 carburetor. Drove to the junk yard around 1980 . Love that car. Side note power steering manual brakes in a wagon.What were you thinking dad.
That's awesome! Thanks for sharing and manual steering would have been a much worse call on that one!
One of my favorite cars I never owned. I believe it was a 1971 GT Type NW available only in the Pacific NW. At the time these were available for peanuts in the mid 70's. What might have been! Great video on the Torino history. My preferred ride was the Mustang from when I turned 16 till my last 1992 Fox body convertible in 2010. Wish I had held onto a few of them.
Thank you for the kind words and for sharing
Back in the 70s I owned a 70 GT sports roof and my brother owned a 71 Torino cobra-jet 2 door sedan. Both cars had the 351 Cleveland but mine was a C6 and my brothers had the toploader 4 speed.
Good video, my only complaint being it didn't cover Rancheros which were indeed in the Torino line. My 73 Ranchero came with a Torino owners manual.
I get it and I considered it but It was 40 hours making it as it was and I figure Rancheros deserve their own video.
As did my 69.
@@TonysFordsandMustangs I get that but not even a mention?
@@glnnchrstphr9717 I made stand alone Ranchero video with all things Ranchero. ua-cam.com/video/Ekqkp6ik4YA/v-deo.html
I had a 74 grand Torino elite. It was a good highway car. I made it from Toronto to Montreal in less than 3 hours.
That's impressive!
@@TonysFordsandMustangs I was driving over 130 miles/hour all the way. I just stopped once for gas.
@@rottenanimal619 Those cars were not know for getting great gas mileage. Of course pushing that hard didn't help the cause.
@@TonysFordsandMustangs Bank in the late 70's and 80's the police didn't bother much with speeders. Now they push tickets for revenue generation. The politicians need expense elaborate dinners and vacations.
In my late teens I was fortunate enough to own a 1969 Torino GT with the 428 CJ engine, but no ram-air, although it did have the hood scoop. This particular car was pale yellow with gold stripe and a gold painted hood scoop. It looked very similar to the car shown here at 5.25. I stupidly sold it around 8 years later after getting married. It was actually a good handling car. I used to run it hard on some twisty roads in Virginia, including US 60 up the back of the Blue Ridge mountains and down that scary drop on the western side to Buena Vista. I'd do several runs and folks in the little shop/cafe at the top of the mountain would be waiting outside to get a look at the beast. Miss those days...
Thanks for sharing!
I've owned 12 total Torino's, most 68 Fastback GT's (I love the grill, the 5 fake vents and that curve following C-Stripe). Also owned up to 1974 Sports. I even owned one of what the Torino became in 1977, the LTD II.
That's awesome thanks for sharing!
I grew up in this time period and one of the things I miss most on cars are the round headlights.
There's a lot of styling of cars I miss. I actually miss there being cars period.
Had a 71 torino cobra ...it was scary fast
Great cars!
In 1976 I bought a 71 Torino GT with a 351cleveland C4 automatic for $1,295. Had 60,000 miles on it. In 97 I bought a 76 Torino 4dr with a 351M with automatic with 60,000 miles for $1,400.
These Torino's are adorable....
My mother drove a 1968 428 Torino GT fastback when she was pregnant with me. 17 years later what is my favorite car... a 1968 Torino GT Fastback. Low and behold one showed up in the recycler in Van Nuys Ca. got it for $600.00!!! Lime gold. the 390 didn't last long as the PO admitted "change oil? no just added" well 3 broken cam pieces later I found a 427MR for about $1,000.00
& had my dad's mechanic put it in. took him a year but I finally got it back. and I'll tell you what, it was WAAAAY too much engine for me. The nice folks at Underground Ford removed the nice 900cfm Holley 3 barrel and replaced it with a vacuum Holley 600. (Thanks guys) Still was never tame enough for the street and it was sold to a friend so I could get a 67 Fairlane XL I wish I had that car now. sigh.
Great Story! Thanks for sharing!
When I was a teen, we had a 1970 Fairlane 2 door with the 302 2BBL. I didn't realize just what a nice looking car it was, and opted to drive our Pinto instead most of the time.
I'm sure the Pinto was easier to drive especially as a teen.
My grandmother was born in 1905 only had Studebakers until my grandfather passed away in 1965. Her next car was a 1968 Volvo, which she hated and it didn't have much power. In 1970 she went to a Ford dealer and told the salesman she wanted a car with some passing power. He sold her a 1970 Torino with a 429 Cobra Jet engine. She loved that car.
Your grandmother was very a very cool Lady! Thanks for sharing!
Great video, great voice.
Thanks for watching!
Owned a '72 Gran Torino with a 400ci. V-8 as a hand-me-down from a sibling who owned since new for three years.
Not really my style (preferred smaller sportier cars), but it had a comfortable interior, slightly firm ride, good brakes, and the big-block was a torque monster----responsive and made power right off idle--so really nice in around-town driving.
The car also had good sound-deadening material in it, which translated into a quiet ride, Stuck an aftermarket sound system in it, and it sounded great. About all it needed was a moon roof, and would have been in Nirvana.
About the only downside was fuel economy coming in at 8-10mpg, laughable by today's standards (well, almost). Decent car, served me well for four years.
Thanks for sharing your experience!
My first car was a 1974 Gran Torino 2 door. Dad bought the car new for mom when it came out. After many years of it being the family car, when I got my license, it became my car, (with the understanding that I was then responsible for driving my little brothers around).
While I hated it at the time, (the whole "hand me down from mom" thing) I came to love it, and it is my biggest regret that it got sold out of the family, when I joined the Marine Corps in the spring of 1991.
Thanks for watching and sharing.
I owned a 1971 Torino Brogham coupe with the hidden headlight option and a 351-4v M Code. I wish I had never sold that car
72 Gran Torino sport was also in a movie called Fear is the Key. Pretty cool chase scene
Thanks for sharing! I will have to check that one out.
I was fortunate enough to have a J code 70 Cobra. It was an 11.3 second car, had 4.56:1 rear end and a Crane and later a Ford Motorsport cam. BTW, Fear is the Key with Barry Newman movie featured a 72 Gran Torino Sport and they drove the hell out of it in the movie. Tough car.
Thanks for watching and for sharing!
I am a Ford guy but the late 60s Torino line up was always confusing to me with body styles and options. Great summary
Thank you for watching and for your comment!
a MoPar guy since the late 1960's the 70 /71 Torino's are great looking cars
Thanks for watching! Those were designed by Bill Schenk. I met the man back in the mid 2000's and he was kind enough to sign the inside of my trunk lid. Thanks for watching!
