For Sale: 1969 Ford Torino in North East, Pennsylvania

1969 Ford Torino Cobra For SaleThis 1969 Ford Torino Cobra is documented with a Marti Report, shows 94,000 miles designated as original on its Pennsylvania title, and presents in black over a black interior. The Cobra was Ford's answer to the Plymouth Road Runner, built on a simple formula: put the biggest engine in the lineup into the lightest, least expensive body Ford could justify, and spend nothing on trim that did not make the car faster. Every Cobra left the factory with the 428 Cobra Jet as standard equipment, which is what separates it from a Torino GT with a checked option box.Power comes from the 428ci Cobra Jet V8, advertised by Ford at 335 horsepower, a rating widely regarded at the time as conservative relative to what the engine actually produced. Behind it is a close-ratio 4-speed manual, the setup the Cobra was designed around, feeding a 3.50 Traction-Lok differential. That combination puts the car squarely in its intended territory: short gearing, a limited-slip out back, and a big-block with a wide torque curve.The chassis reflects the Cobra's competition suspension package, which was mandatory equipment with the 428 and consisted of higher-rate springs, a larger-diameter front stabilizer bar, and firmer shock valving. Four-speed cars also received the staggered rear shock arrangement, with one shock mounted ahead of the axle and one behind it, to control wheel hop under hard launches. Braking is handled by front discs and rear drums, with the front discs representing an option on these cars rather than base equipment. Inside, the black interior follows the Cobra's intentionally spare presentation, with the Fairlane 500 trim level Ford used to keep the car's price where it needed to be.The car carries its documentation in two directions. The Marti Report establishes how it was originally configured and built, while receipts and records cover a comprehensive repaint performed in the late 2000s along with an older restoration before it. Combined with the title's original mileage designation, the paper trail on this Cobra is more complete than most surviving examples.NFI Empire specializes in classic, exotic, modified, and luxury vehicles.
