For sale in our Nashville showroom is a 1968 1/2 Ford Torino GT.
This Torino for sale is not your average grocery getter from the
�60's. Stuffed between the shock towers of this Torino GT is a
master piece of Ford technology the 428 Cobra jet engine with
factory ram air. This R code beauty was built to get the ice cream
home before it melted. In 1968 the 428 had an advertized rating of
335 horsepower with 445 Feet pounds of torque running 10.6:1
compression pistons. Now I believe Ford might have fudged the
numbers to the low side to placate the insurance companies. Now
according to the Marti report this is a very rare car Torino GT 2
door fastback with the 428-4V CJ covered in candy apple red with
black interior originally had the 4.30:1 axle ratio with traction
loc. This has been changed to a more gas friendly 3.25:1 final
drive ratio. Other than that the only other changes are the
Edelbrock Torker intake and 780 street avenger carburetor. The
transmission is the venerable c-6 select shift cruise -o-matic
.Other option listed on the Marti repot are center console, power
brakes and steering and AM radio. This car has been restored to

miles since rebuild and shows like new. So here is your chance to
own something that you will not find an entire row of that the
local car show. This car needs a row to itself, because let's face
it, how many 1968 � R code Ford Torino's were made? Options for
