This 1970 Ford Torino GT is a marvelously restored muscle car with
fantastic performance options. If you think back to the origins of
a true muscle car, the first muscle cars all shared the same
elements-an intermediate sized car paired with a big, high
horsepower motor. By the time the late sixties rolled around,
seemingly every American car maker had its own version of a muscle
car and for the Ford Motor Company that car was initially the
Fairlane. In 1968, Ford introduced the Fairlane Torino as the top
trim level sub-series for the Fairlane and the Torino GT which was
considered the sportier version. When 1970 rolled around, the
Torino became its own standalone model and was split off from the
Fairlane line. In the middle of 1970, when the 1970 Torinos were
introduced to the public, they had received a major facelift from
the previous year with a new-look front end and grille, along with
new "Coke-Bottle" body lines. Additionally, Ford continued to offer
the sportier performance-oriented versions in the Torino GT and the
GT Cobra, with the Torino GT "SportsRoof" Fastbacks selling
particularly well. Torino GTs were outfitted with special hood
scoops, emblems, and elevated interior trim, and came with a
variety of engine options. Under the Shaker Hood on this M-Code
1970 Torino GT is a 351 Cubic Inch Cleveland V8 engine paired with
single 4 barrel carburetor that was said to have pushed out 300
horsepower in its day. The 351 Cleveland is backed by a 4 speed
manual transmission that makes this classic Ford muscle car an
absolute blast to drive and run through the gears. Power is sent
from the 351 Cleveland motor to the rear wheels via a
"Traction-Lok" positraction rear axle that helps ensure that you'll
be able to keep the rubber to the pavement when cruising in this
gorgeous muscle car. Exhaust exits the stout Ford powerplant via
MagnaFlow dual exhaust setup that gives the car a nice throaty
sound. This '70 Torino GT is also equipped with power front disc
brakes, which makes bringing this classic muscle car to a stop much
easier. Riding on a set of raised letter radial tires paired with
Magnum 500 wheels, this GT Torino has a great look and even better
ride. The exterior on this Torino GT SportsRoof has been refinished
in a beautiful Medium Red paint with black hood decals. The
interior on this 1970 Ford Torino GT is absolutely gorgeous! The
front bucket seats and rear bench seat have been reupholstered in
black vinyl, giving the car a sportier feel. The dash, door panels,
center console, black carpeting and steering wheel all have a nice
look and appear to be in their stock configuration. The dash is
equipped with a 120 MPH speedometer, 8,000 RPM tachometer,
temperature gauge, and fuel gauge, along with an upgraded
AM/FM/Cassette entertainment system. A trifecta of SunPro gauges,
including gauges for temperature, volts, and oil pressure, have
been tucked neatly under the dash. Whether you're buying your first
classic muscle car or you're adding to your stable of Fords, this
1970 Ford Torino GT SportsRoof would make an excellent choice. Give
