 Description

Up for grabs is a real and rare 1971 Ford Torino Cobra.  We have original documentation to include window sticker, manuals, etc and a Marti Report.  This muscle car runs and drives great!  Jump in, turn the key, put it in gear, and lay some rubber.  It runs and drives great!  The 4 speed with factory Hurst shifter feels great as you row through the gears.  The motor is very strong and the exhaust puts you right back into the early '70s.  It will chirp third!  This Cobra came with the heavy load suspension greatly increasing it's handling capabilities and the brakes work flawlessly.  We have gone through the car mechanically and it is in good shape.  It is ready to drive! 

 

A little body work and cleaining up the interior will make this car like new again.  It is a complete driving and running car!  The car was originally Grabber Green Metallic.  Somewhere along the line it was repainted.  You can see the original paint in some spots where the paint has chipped.  The body is in great shape with a little rust coming through in the typical areas as you will see in the pictures.  The floors are solid and the underside is in great shape.  This car is completely restorable.  In fact you can drive it every day as you work on it.  The odometer reads 89,356 miles but we cannot confirm that is accurate.  Don't hesitate to call with any questions.  We do accept trade-ins and can get you financed!  However please discuss these details with us before bidding.

 

Engine - Starts right up and runs great!  The motor is very stroung and runs great.  It has lots of power.  She will chirp third!  As far as we can tell his is the original motor to the car.  It does have an Edelbrock carb.

 

Transmission - Shifts smooth with no noises.  It still sports the factory optioned Hurst shifter.  The clutch feels good.  As far as we can tell this is the original transmission.

 

Body -  This is a solid car.  It does have some rust in the typical areas.  This is not a bondo car.  It appears to have been repainted for a color change only.  The floors are solid throughout.  Underneath looks great with very little rust.  The trunk and hood are in good shape.  There is a small dent on the trunk.  We do have the bottom trim for the rear window but not the sides and top.  As you can tell from the pictures there is some rust coming though on the body.  However this car is completely restorable.

 

Interior - The interior is in great shape and appears to be all original.  To make it brand new an interior kit is in order (upholstery, headliner, carpet).  But it is very presentable as it sits.  The driver seat has some tears but the passenger seat is in good shape.  The carpet is in good shape.  It has an aftermarket radio, three pod gauge and a tachometer.  The mirror adjust on the driver's door panel is missing.  There is a switch next to the light switch that is missing.  I believe it is the choke.  I am sure one of you Torino experts will help me out if I'm wrong.  All gauges, lights, switches, etc appear to be working.

 

Engine - Starts right up and runs great.  Lots of power.  She will chirp third!  As far as we can tell his is the original motor to the car.  It does have an Edelbrock carb.  Not much else to say!  It runs great, just jump in and go.

 

Transmission - Shifts smooth with no noises.  It still sports the factory optioned Hurst shifter.  The clutch is good.  As far as we can tell this is the original transmission.
