I love it. Its like a cross between a Ford GT and a Mazda Furai.

Thats almost as good as Cli-Taurus

Roadkill? Is that you? I loved road tripping to see my SHO. I hope another one of similar proportions is coming soon.

Much agreeing with you. Those Ford rally wheels are damn nice.

I miss that car so much. How could you not miss a 429 big block wrapped in a green that beautiful?

0:21 Urrp. Think I may have just vomited in my mouth a bit. 0:31. Annnnd now its every where. Did this guy know he's supposed to consume three bottles of absinthe before designing a super car? Not crack. Don't do drugs kids.

You win an internetz sir.

If we can count trips i went on with the person who bought the car, (who also doesn't like computers, nor does he know how the internet works,) then it would be the road trip to pick up this beauty. It was a 1970 Ford Torino,base model, and it had no engine or trans. I think he paid about $400 for it intending to use…

theres a meme in there some where, Im sure of it.

The Peranas and Mako V8's were so damn cool.Some of them even got surplus BOSS 302s.

Im really liking the Lariat Sport. In black of course.

I can wait to go pick mine up! Just waiting for the paperwork to clear customs and im borrowing a truck and trailer and heading off on a roadtrip to upstate New York! Mines even the same colour.

well, I'll be damned. Three please.

Ahh. i follow ya.

Hows this? 400 horse 429. And its a Torino, not a Falcon or Fairlane.

He did the dash that way because they aren't remanufactured. There is a way to restore them, but it is so prohibitively expensive, its not usually worth it unless you are going for a numbers original restoration.

Hard to find? Those dash pads are frighteningly hard to find. and expensive as all hell. Dont get me started on grilles and headlights, especially hide-away systems.

This body style of car lived as three, the Falcon, Fairlane and most famously, the Torino. The Falcon and Fairlane were both gone by mid '70 and the Torino was around till the redesign and sorta rename in '72, becoming the Gran Torino. These cars are hilariously under appreciated compared to the models bracketing…

Put SHOs in everything! I want this, an AIV Sable and my SHO powered Capri.

Did no one nominate the first and second gen SHO Taurus? 7000 rpm Yamaha DOHC V6? Helloooo?
