Vehicle Description
Built for competition, the fastback Fords of 1969 were nothing to
scoff at. Champions of 1969's NASCAR season, the wind-cheating
design and ultra-sleek, flowing bodylines of the Fairlane fastbacks
are unmistakably beautiful in every sense of the word. This 1969
Ford Torino represents the peak of both style and performance,
wrapping up a numbers-matching powertrain under the hood in
conjunction with one of the best car designs the 1960s had to
offer. Under the hood lies a numbers-matching 351 C.I. "Windsor" V8
breathing through a 4-barrel carburetor, putting out enough power
to make this Fairlane one of the best muscle cruisers you could ask
for. Torque is put to the pavement through an equally
numbers-matching smooth-shifting 3-speed automatic transmission
allowing this car to do it all, from highway cruising to simple
trips around town. Arguably one of the best designs of the '60s and
only around for two model years from '68 to '69, this '69 Torino
looks like a dream on four wheels. The exterior is covered in
driver's-quality "Brittany Blue" paint, bathing this car's
bodylines in a hue that's sure to turn heads anywhere it goes.
Black GT C-Stripe decals contrast with the car's paint wonderfully,
making this Torino seem like it's in motion even if it's sitting
still. Additionally, the floors, frame, trunk and jambs are all
very solid and in great shape! Opening the twin doors reveals a
stunning two-tone blue and white vinyl interior, complete with
comfy stylized bucket seats and a full center console. Options on
this sweet '69 Torino include power steering, power brakes, factory
gauges, an aftermarket tachometer, a vintage-style AM/FM radio,
updated rear speakers, a GT hood and scoop, an under-dash 8-track
player, "Dual-Sport" mirrors, a remote driver's mirror, and a
mean-sounding dual exhaust system. The car rides on an attractive
set of 14" GT wheels over blackwall tires for a clean appearance
that's sure to turn heads! With the 351 V8 under the hood and the
3-speed automatic backing it up, this '69 Torino runs and drives
down the road wonderfully. With the breathtaking looks and
muscle-cruiser capability that this Fairlane brings to the table,
it's not going to be on the showroom floor for long, so don't let
it pass you by! We'd love to see it in your driveway.
