This beautiful 1970 Ford Torino GT Convertible had been resting in a friend’s garage, for a decade or two, in southern California. The owner finally convinced his friend to part with the vehicle thinking he could fix it up quickly and have a nice ride to roll in. While the car "looked" beautiful, the "new owner" quickly discovered how much his "friend" had not let be known. Nothing major was wrong, but a lot of little things were preventing the "quick" from happening. Most of the issues were electrically related and, after a bit of hair-pulling, the owner got the wipers, windows, top, lights, and assorted other items all functioning properly again.
Now, this healthy, numbers-matching, Ford Torino runs as good as it looks. As per the videos, the engine runs very well and sounds fantastic. The red exterior is very attractive and is highlighted with a black convertible top. The white interior is whole and trimmed in black. The car is solid with no outward signs of corrosion.
The car comes with the original window sticker and a Marti report, shown in the gallery, identifying the car's build history. Many other service records are included with the car as well as several extra parts.
This 1970 Torino GT Convertible looks and sounds great and has those good ol' Ford ponies at the ready for the next owner. Haggerty has these cars valued in the $30K-$40K range and they have brought $60K+ when fully restored. Don't miss this opportunity.
