Gateway Classic Cars of San Antonio/Austin is excited to present
this 1973 Ford Gran Torino, finished in eye-catching Competition
Yellow with aggressive black racing stripes. Its long, sleek body
lines capture the essence of early '70s performance, while 14-inch
Mustang wheels and a custom dual snorkel intake built into the
headlights give it a unique, performance-inspired edge you won't
see at every car show. Under the hood sits the legendary 351
Cleveland V8, one of Ford's most respected high-performance engines
of the era. Known for its strong top-end power and distinctive
sound, it's paired here with a smooth FMX 3-speed automatic
transmission for easy cruising. An Edelbrock carburetor and intake
help wake things up, while dual exhaust with glasspack-style
mufflers delivers that deep, unmistakable muscle car rumble.
Inside, the Ginger vinyl interior brings classic '70s vibes,
complete with a comfortable bench seat and floor-mounted shifter.
Upgrades like a Lokar shifter, aftermarket tach, and Sony
AM/FM/CD/Aux stereo blend vintage style with modern convenience.
Power steering and front disc brakes make it a confident cruiser.
The Gran Torino gained pop culture fame through shows like Starsky
& Hutch, cementing its place as one of Ford's most recognizable
muscle-era machines. Today, clean examples are becoming harder to
find, especially with tasteful upgrades like this one. With its
standout color, proven V8 performance, and unmistakable presence,
this Torino isn't just a car, it's a rolling piece of American
attitude. Fire it up, hit the road, and enjoy the rumble of true
Ford muscle.
