Please read all the description and buying instructions. 1971 Ford Torino. Very nice car! Odometer shows 12,269 but I'm sure it has exceeded its limits. Pictures show accurate description. This car runs, drives, shifts and stops. I have not tagged the car so I just drove it around my neighborhood. Have too many cars and not enough time to finish. It is the nicest project car you will find! No hard stuff to do. Has exhaust leak. Leaks right where doughnut gasket is, where exhaust and manifold meet. Brakes work but right rear does lock up. Needs looking at. Please read the good and bad, look at the photos and bid away. You will be pleasantly surprised at this Torino! Car sat for 10 years. Owner had put brand new tires on and parked in barn for 10 years. The new tires had dry rotted bad.Bought brand new Cooper Cobra radials, Changed fluids, replaced brake line, changed gas, put in battery, and she runs and drives good. I have left for you to finish as you want. (I think it needs the blue side stripe) Would be awesome! Original color was Pastel Blue. Car has been repainted at some point, and I think color is very close to original, but may not be perfect match. I am unsure of when painted, by whom or what exact color is now. Youtube video link- https://youtu.be/LnPQskFAKJM The Good- Very good paint! It is a very, very light blue. Looks white from 10 feet. Sears underdash air conditioning! Did blow cold when I got it, but now just a little cool. May have leak or may not work. I do not certify it at all. Fan blows very strong. See video. Seats look great front and back. Car cranks easily, runs good, shifts good and stops. Brakes may need adjustment or replacing. Brand new Cooper Cobra radials! 0 Miles! These were over $400! New dash cap. It is black and can be painted. I did not glue it so next owner can take out and paint if wanted. Has magnum 15 inch wheels in pretty good shape. Not perfect but very good. 302 seems to be original engine. No smoke or unusual noises from engine. Disc brakes on front. Very solid body. No visible rust at all on body. (Needs new deck lid, rusted bad on inside lip.) All underneath car seems very solid. Have build sheet! Found under rear seat. Needs repair- Rear deck lid inside lip rusted out. Hood has slight rust underneath front of hood lip. Very saveable. Trunk floor has small area of rust near rear of trunk floor. (Pictured) Small right fender dent. Pictured. Needs headliner. Has dry rotted and has rips and tears. Need new steering wheel. It of course works but a new one would do wonders. Heater fan starts to blow but makes noise. I think fan maybe sticking. Has small dents on right front fender. Rest of body straight as an arrow. Dash is cracked up. Have new dash cap to cover up. Right rear brake is locking up. A/C is blowing but not as cold as it was few weeks ago. May have leak, may not be working. Do not know. Windshield, and side glasses have some staining on them that will not wipe off. Maybe buffed off, but I make no promises. Please look at video, look over photos and decide whether this is the car for you. It does shift, stop and drive. Has big exhaust leak but exhaust looks very good and newer under car. The car sat for a long time but he may have had exhaust put on sometime in between. Just don't look that old to me?
