Had a friend down the street from me where I lived that had a 1970 429 Cobra drag pack, 411 gears in the rear with posi. Every now and then he would get in his Torino and torch those back tires while going down the street. As a 15 year old kid way back then I thought that was pretty cool, but the greatest thrill for us kids back then was actually when he gave us a ride in this beautiful car of his. It was an acrylic yellow, I don't think they called it Grabber yellow with black interior with the Cobra emblems on the fenders. Man I sure love that car and I love these Torinos even though it'd be years later when I finally bought a 1970 Mach I equipped with a 351 Cleveland 4V engine. I bought the car in 75 with 74k on it. I couldn't believe how powerful that 351 Cleveland was hooked up to an FMX automatic transmission. And I still have this car, some things you just don't part with.

I had one in '77. At six years in the Michigan winters, mine had holes in the floorboard that ripped loose the front mounts for the front seat (bench). I stabbed the gas and rocked back lying on the back seat looking at the head liner. Fortunately I regained control soon enough to avoid a wreck. That might have been interesting to explain to the cops.

Very sweet ride, I was lucky enough to find a 70 Torino GT Fastback with a 429 SCJ Top loader 4spd with the factory Hurst shifter and the hidaway headlights, factory in dash tach, also Grabber Blue, I wasn't a fan of the colour but it was much easier to repaint the Grabber Blue and people seemed to comment and love it so much it ended up growing on me, the car wasn't actually for sale at the time but I kept the ad from the classifieds and when I called them they still had the car, the price went from $ 1400 to 950, I got it for 800.

I had one just like that and just as nice except it was a bench seat car,, came out of a barn in middle valley TN in 1991 perfect original Grabber blue paint with the same laser stripe ( It does look like a bright white neon light at night when headlights hit it ) with no dents scratches or door dings. Interior was also black & perfect.. It had 19,000 miles on it the polyglass spare on a Magnum 500 rim had never hit the ground. The man I purchased it from was the 2nd owner & he purchased it in 1972 from the dealer that sold it originally ( Forrest Cate Ford ) His name was George E Rogers.. I sold the car in 1993 & have regretted it ever since.. Hang on to it forever bud.. On a side note the man also had a 1979 F150 that had 700 miles on it but that was in 1991. His daily driver was a beat up 1969 Pontiac Grand Prix SJ 428. I guess that's why both Fords had low miles on them... Lol. Oh purchase price was $2500 for the Torino GT

Easier then that, the grill on a 70 has a round emblem “O” the 71 has a Verticle emblem or a “I” in the center, I’ve had a few in the 80’s when I drag raced, my fav was the twin of this one, same Blue and stripe, mine was a 71, 351 4V 4 speed 4.10 trac loc posi, the other way to tell the difference was by the side, the 71 had different mounding down low on the body then the 70. Great cars, sure miss mine, just a blown up mustang, unibody. Nice car.

I very much like cars like these, the ones that are just a little bit out of the ordinary, enough so that you question what it is and not exclaim "WTF!" My uncle, Zolton Bulogh, became a senior engineer at FoMoCo after fleeing from Hungary with some family members after the 1956 Uprising. The cars he always drove were Mercurys, but he did have a soft spot for these high performance machines. Apparently, they reminded him of his purpose and meaning. What that is, I'm still not sure!

How come nobody says anything about the rear side glass. The 71 has a pointed side glass. The 70 is squared off.

i know that louvers are useless and block your vision and all that...but they look so great on any ford fastback (by the way ford never used fastback they always officially used the term 'sportback' but even as a ford guy i never heard anyone saying that haha)

They do look good. And are not entirely useless, they block the sun from heating up the interior.
