1970 Ford Torino Cobra - 429 Cobra Jet - Muscle Car

[@MajorTendonitis]

Back in my high school days , we road around in my friends 1070 yellow cobra Torino . In the mid 70’s , I swear the cobra Torino with its 429 CJ was the quickest car I’ve ever been in . One thing I noticed about the cobra Torino ,is the front end lifts up quite high during launch. We’d race a Camaro , and he’d just be sitting there spinning out losing traction , and we’d be half way to the next light because of how well it hooks up . How I miss the old days lol

[@bisquik3006]

Thank you.

[@tezaintright]

absolutely beautiful car....my neighbor has a 1970 Torino 429 Cobra jet thats just currently sitting in his yard, use to be an beast when he was street racing, trying to get him to sell me the motor so I can drop it in this 66 Ford Custom 2 door ive been eyeing in town lol. But that car was amazing, the new owner got a great piece of history, im sure their pleased!

[@sromero5]

Cool Car, When I Saw The Red Torino I Thought I Recogonized The car except I'd Seen It In Yellow, The Mag On The dash Confirmed It. Nice Ride

[@craigmiller3568]

Yellow much nicer !

[@RamblinAround]

@bisquik3006 No problem, thought you might appreciate this one.

[@RamblinAround]

Thanks for taking a look!

[@RamblinAround]

They really are great looking cars and that 429 is a real powerhouse. Thanks for taking a look at this one. I hope you can manage to talk him out of that engine.

[@DominatorGarage]

He had restored the car?

[@jbrunsonjr]

Wow that thing is cleeeeeean!

[@DireStraitsInImpala]

I have discovered so many cool cars through your videos, and this is no exception! Thanks for posting!

[@RamblinAround]

@FatGuyWithAKatana It definitely is a mean looking ride. I've always liked those shaker hood scoops. Thanks for checking it out!

[@ParadoxdesignsOrg]

@RamblinAround with the 4spd i dont doubt this thing is a monster.

[@upstatearms4]

@RamblinAround yea the rain is suppose to come in here around 5pm and then rain all the way through till next friday... never fails 4 nice days followed by 10 of rain

[@RamblinAround]

That one was very nice, I'm glad you like it. Thanks for watching!

[@jammer96]

My mom had one of these as her 1st car, except it was yellow with black stripes. Wish she could've kept it!!

[@RamblinAround]

@ThatDudeJCrash Thanks for checking it out!

[@RamblinAround]

@hunhun23 It really is nice....thanks for taking a look!

[@RamblinAround]

@sromero5 Thanks for checking it out!

[@RamblinAround]

@GEREEF Thanks for taking a look!

[@MartyInLa]

That is a very nice car.

[@RamblinAround]

@jammer96 I can't even imagine having something like this for a first car.....very cool.

[@RamblinAround]

@MartyInLa Thanks for checking it out!

[@RamblinAround]

@pearsonba350 Yep, this one is a beauty for sure. Thanks for having a look at it!

[@ThatDudeJCrash]

Gorgeous..

[@RamblinAround]

@krisis2phresh Thanks for checking it out!

[@RamblinAround]

@Xsis720 I believe there were about 7600 of the Cobra's built in 1970. I'm sure there are far less than that left out there. It really is an awesome machine. Thanks for taking a look!

[@snickerstorino]

my dream car !!! i got a major project el camino, i guess we all got to start somewhere.

[@RamblinAround]

@Guireles2007 Thanks for checking it out!

[@RamblinAround]

@TheLionsDenNews It is a beauty for sure....one of my favorites. Thanks for checking it out!

[@RamblinAround]

@805ROADKING Yep, the Torino was a heck of a car back in the day. A real terror on the track too. Those later models were a real let down.

[@RamblinAround]

@AddictiveBreedNICK I'm not sure, but they're always happy to see me...so I'm guessing they sell some.

[@RamblinAround]

Thanks for watching!

[@williambowman9638]

i have been a fan of torinos since i was a kid,this is a beautiful car

[@jacobbales3692]

First car on my wish list love this car

[@Guireles2007]

IT'S NEW!!! Beautiful car.

[@hunhun23]

What a beauty!

[@craigtaylor115]

Love it my favourite

[@W1se0ldg33zer]

I had a friend who had a green one of those - with slicks and traction bars he could pull wheel stands with it - bone stock engine.

[@RamblinAround]

That's cool that you had one. I've always liked these too. Thanks for taking a look at this one!

[@RamblinAround]

I'm afraid it has already been sold, but the price was around $46,000.

[@RamblinAround]

@pulse0000 It's definitely got the classic muscle car look. Thanks for checking it out!

[@RamblinAround]

@Busia1949 That Mach I is a real beauty for sure. Thanks for watching, George.

[@RamblinAround]

That is very true. You can work your way up to your dream car though. Good luck with your project....thanks for watching!

[@3rd4thgenFbody]

dam thats nice

[@RamblinAround]

@id104335409 I'm glad you like it. Thank you very much for taking a look at it!

[@Trex1268]

One of my all time favorites!!

[@RamblinAround]

@jbrunsonjr Yeah, this is how you want to find them. It really looks great all the way around.

[@RamblinAround]

@paradoxdesigns You can bet that it runs out real strong. Those 429 Cobra Jets were rated at 370 HP, and that was underrating them by quite a bit.

[@Xsis720]

how many of these awesome torino cobras were made?

[@sharid76]

Beautiful car! Impressive on every level! I've always been a Ford fan. Two of my boyfriends had Torinos - one had a 1969 Torino, and the other had a brand new 1972 Gran Torino Sport. His father owned a dealership, and Jim always drove the nicest ones. The 1972 he bought outright and kept. My first car was a 1969 Ford Galaxy 500 with a 390 in it. I bought it for a pittance from my mother who wanted a smaller car, and shared it with my boyfriend/fiancé and then it became OUR car when we married. Then, he bought me a 1971 Ford Torino GT SportsRoof for my 21st birthday in 1978 though! I loved the lines from the minute I saw her, and the power from the 351-C 4V attached to a C6 Console shift automatic was more than adequate! It was apparently a rare color though, because I have rarely seen another burgundy one like it. It had hi-back buckets of course and the whole interior was black. It was hotter than Hades hinges in the summer with no AC! I had to open it up and let the heat out for a few minutes before I could get in and sit on the vinyl seats. I learned quickly to keep the seats and the steering wheel covered up so they could be touched, and then the fold-up windshield "heat shields" hit the market, and saved the day! I had it for a long time before I sold it to a friend who restores Torinos, and mine had become a money pit. The under body and suspension was notorious for rusting away if it was driven in Midwestern states where they used lots of salt on the roads to de-ice them. It was a commonly known flaw in design to those of us with older Torinos. Anyway, mine became an "organ donor" to a couple of Torinos that were under restoration. I wouldn't have done it if I'd had the money to fix her, but I didn't. And this was in 1998, so I'd already had her for 20 years. She had taken us on many trips, before and after the two to the hospital to have our babies; carried those babies in their car seats ALWAYS until they were outgrown, to every home we lived in, in several cities, and to our first house we bought in 1990. She was a good, dependable friend and I hated to see her go. I couldn't even be here when they came to get her on a trailer. And many tears were shed in her memory. She was the first car to whom I had grown truly attached, and no others have really taken her place since then. Now I love my 2000 Sable LS Premium, and she's my favorite shade of blue. But she will never take the place of my first real car of my very own.

[@AssKick1998]

beautiful car

[@RamblinAround]

@1gamoguy Me too, I plan to get them to start up and drive some of the cars this summer. They've offered to do it, but so far it's either been raining or people were busy.

[@pearsonba350]

Ooohhhh, that a beauty! Sweet!

[@ParadoxdesignsOrg]

sickly clean. bet it hauls ass, too.

[@TheBobafett13]

Did they ever make a 70 torino gt with the 429? I know of a car near my house that has a 429 with GT badging.

[@chrisschaub8810]

Still for sale?

[@MrCleanPolo]

FORD POWER!

[@sarrose07]

It's a beauty! I love it.

[@805ROADKING]

They were a good lookin' car before the Starsky and Hutch era eh!!☺

[@JeepDodge70]

wow she is a beauty!

[@RamblinAround]

Thank you for watching, I appreciate it!

[@bisquik3006]

@chevydiesel350015 70 Chevelle owners with they had one of these. lol

[@chevydiesel350015]

i aint a ford man but i wouldn't mind owning that one lol

[@upstatearms4]

would love to hear that run!

[@RamblinAround]

Yeah, I hate seeing things like that. Most of the time, if you ask the the guy...he'll say he's not ready to sell it. Then you'll see the thing sit there for years.

[@snickerstorino]

thanks! someday, its that money issue you know lol. i figure maybe i will find an el camino freak who happens to have a torino or chevelle and wants to trade.

[@tayronealmeida8552]

hello, I'm from Brazil and just as you love cars muscles already watch all your videos are very good, I have a classic car here in my country but stops right near the American cars. thanks for the videos

[@MrStevecampbell]

Love the car I had the same car in green and as allways you do a great job with the videos

[@AddictiveBreedNICK]

I wonder how many you sell a month for these guys from your vidz mate

[@aaron1051]

I wanted to hear your machine but it's fine, good video and beautiful car greetings

[@wtpjustice100]

Very Nice car, I have a 69 Torino Formal with a 302 in it, needs a little paint and it is in collector status again!

[@MEJB7]

sounds good

[@steelnation69]

Very nice cars, there is a 70 or 71 Torino GT, green with white interior not even a mile from me rotting away right off the road by this guys fence, sad.

[@JakeTheSnakeProductions]

bee-yooooo-tee-ful!!!

[@superduper1302]

BEAUTY

[@RamblinAround]

@talfacprez That was a great car for a high school kid. I would've gotten into some trouble with something like that though.

[@badassvibs]

man that's a nice car im looking at getting a 70 Torino but is not a real 429 cobra jet car I don't know what the original motor was but im not going to keep it in im going to put it in my wife mustang and put in Torino is Jon Kaase racing Boss Nine there version of the boss 429.

[@garyfaulkner3043]

i bet some of you all don't know some of these cars came with a rockchester qudrajet carb.

[@TurmoilRick]

come on! leather not vinyl, other than that beautiful, and the speedometer may only say 120. but it goes hell of alot faster hehehe

[@Porsche996driver]

Oh the instruments and speedo are a let down. My family had a ‘68 Torino GT and it had proper round hooded speedo and tach. Looks to have the same center console as ‘68 but I like the nylon/fabric seat inserts. That black vinyl get hot lol.

[@prestonmillican]

I'm trying to paint my hood black on my 1970 ford tornio. could someone give me spec on that

[@craigmiller3568]

Guess someone lost the keys 🤔😡

[@ronniehill6142]

Take one over any Chevelle

[@nathantv8257]

The speedometer and steering wheel look the same as whats in a 1970 Ford LTD.

[@Raycg2222]

only if i hade $45,000 dollers

[@doc4600]

Never started the car.

[@RamblinAround]
