Vehicle Description
Gateway Classic cars of Tampa presents this amazing 1971 Ford
Torino GT, a unique embodiment of Ford muscle. The Torino is an
often forgotten and overlooked stalwart of the Ford Performance
arsenal with noteworthy racing Torinos in NASCAR, especially! This
71 Torino GT is finished in a striking Pewter Metallic over -
claimed original - tan vinyl interior. The color complements the
low sweeping body lines well. The tan vinyl interior is rip free
and presents like near new. The factory gauges are all there
although only the in-dash fuel and speedo are working. however
under the dash is a complement of Autometer gauges including a
water, oil pressure and tachometer gauges. The dash cap is crash
free and the original seat belts are present and accounted for as
well. Under the hood is a 351 cu-in, Cleveland V8 rated at 285
horsepower and 370 lb-ft of torque topped with a 750 CFM Brawler
Street carburetor. Long tube headers and custom exhaust allow for a
serious bark! Power is put to the ground though a C6 three-speed
automatic sending power to the rear wheels with via 3:73:1 gears.
The staggered 17" front and 20" rear Black and chrome American
Racing wheels are wrapped in BFGoodrich G-Force Sport tires to
ensure this car had plenty of grip whether launching from a light
or shooting around the curves. When it's time to wind the party
down, powered brakes consisting of disk up front and drums in the
rear haul this Torino GT down. The body and trim -including the
floors and trunk pan - are in great shape and there's no rust. With
the seller reporting rust repair completed before fresh pain was
applied in 2023. Speaking of repairs; the list consist of: New

Don't let this Sleek - 351 powered - rocket get away. It won't last
long and would be an awesome addition to any collection!
