Vehicle Description
Sporty, correct, and a whole lot of fun, a car like this 1973 Ford
Gran Torino offers you a distinctive classic. After all, with a
great color combo, A/C interior, less than 10,000 actual miles and
a correct V8 under the hood, this is the kind of coupe that is
welcomed in any crowd.
Pure '70s cool is the best way to describe the exterior. The
factory-correct Chestnut Metallic has the unmistakable look of
quality that comes from investing in a more recent professional
application. It allows this one to have the kind of era-correct but
always fashionable appearance that will look cool no matter if you
step out wearing a leather jacket of bellbottoms. The same timeless
style can be said for this full coordinating package. The tan vinyl
roof nicely matches the rocker accent line and the pinstriping. And
speaking of the pinstripe, we love how it follows the profile to
showcase the sporty Coke-bottle curves of this coupe. This premium
and performance attitude is nicely capped off by big chrome bumpers
and upgraded 17-inch American Racing Torq Thrust wheels.
Just like the exterior, the interior is cool, correct, and premium.
The carpeting, door panels, seats, and dash all part of a
well-coordinated package. They appear original and are quite well
preserved. The button-top seating has a great style line in the
stitching, and you can even fold down the armrest to go from
family-style space to an individual level of comfort. This was a
car built to give the driver total control, and you'll see that the
moment you sit down. The factory dual-spoke steering wheel gives
you a clear view at the sporty round gauge package. Within reach is
everything you want including controls for the upgraded AM/FM/CD
stereo and air conditioning.
The well preserved presentation continues under the hood. This one
still carries the correct H-code 351 cubic-inch V8. Not only does
it look authentic with the blue block, valve covers, and air
cleaner, but this is also a correct 1973 block. Even the
three-speed automatic transmission is year-correct, so those are
big hints at possible originality. But it takes more than just
history to have a nice classic. That's why good investment were
made along the way (do you see how new the dual exhaust looks?) And
it also has all the right driving features, such as power steering,
front disc brakes, and the modern grip of Falken tires.
Preserved where you want it, including the original build sheet,
and upgraded where it counts - this is a truly distinctive classic.
