I had one just like this when I was 17. Mine was yellow with a 351c / automatic.

I work for Flemings. Actually I started the whole video thing here. Tony is super busy as the owner
and only does videos once a week. When I see a Great car come in, I shoot it usually first, for my customers around the world.
Thanks, Jeff
Back in the late 70s I own a 1971 Ford Torino with 351 C and C 6 automatic trans The bumper needs chrome and I had the hood scope which match the color of the car, and Stock deep dish rims with white walls tires and the stripes on the side and color blue and it turned heads and the car was level.
My 71 Torino 500 came with the 351C & a C4 tranny.
2010chingonoutdoorsman it must have been the 2 barrel Cleveland to have the C4.
Love Torino's 🤘
What a beautiful car!!!
Other than the bent grille and and the smoke out the tail pipe it's nice.
I had one exactly like that. 351C. C-6 transmission. No shaker hood though. Mine was bright orange with same stripe.
Mom's 1st car was a 70 or 71 Torino. Bad ass machine!
No one likes painted bumpers on a '70 Torino, people need to stop doing that.
hey nice to see this torino i saw it was sitting out in front and no video for it yet
And what about the Pontiac “Ram Air” one the side of the shaker scoop? Wtf.
this car looks amazing... i want one.
I want one. Seems to be hard to find. Even watching all the new car shows, or Barrett Jackson, you never see a 70-71 Torino.
I had a 70 built in 69 in calypso coral... I had the vented hood but wasn't aware the shaker was available till the 71. I'm stills big fan but maybe not so much in white. Still I'd love to have it. Under $10k?
The front grill needs to be lifted closer to the hood and the rear lower valance is mounted a little sloppy. Valance should be tighter to bumper other wise a beautiful car. 351C are easily under estimated and a good fit for these cars. With little work they will run just as fast as the 429CJ option.
They messed it up when they painted the bumpers and removed the emblems. SMH 😖
That car is screwed up. The bumpers should be CHROME. The hood should be black. The Wheels SUCK (put some damn MAGNUMS on there). The steering wheel is too small, and that HIDEOUS "FORD" oval on the grill is NOT supposed to be there. It's supposed to be a round "GT" medallion. Used car salesmen irritate me with their smooth-talking BULLSHIT...
beautiful car .

Hi, Jeff here, I work for Flemings. I do videos because I started the whole video thing here at Flemings and have collectors around the world that want the very first videos of our special cars. Tony is super busy so I grab my camera and shoot our cars first for my following!
Is that a 351 cleveland? It's been a while and I can't tell looking at the valve covers...I had a '70 mustand mach I with the cleveland 4V....the 4V had bigger valves among other things when compared to the 2V...
How about that nearly flat driver’s side front tire? Nice presentation my man. Nope.
best year, no doubt
I had a 1971 GT White with the Red interior.....351 Cleveland with 3:73 rear fast car. Would out run the Mach I mustangs....
Wonder what happened to this car?
hey Tony, hows come carsbyjeff has the exact same car on his video? Who has this car you or him and how much?
These are bad ass and you never see them!
I see more torinos,than cyclones why?
I've always liked both I had a 69 cobra. Not torino but cobra dont know if you know the difference
What's the price
it's still a beautiful car though God only knows how much you want for it it don't have the 429 in it it has a 351 351 was in a bad motor though half decent I must say so myself
Beautiful car, but I can’t stand the painted bumper & the Ford logo on the grill. If it was my car, those would be the first things I’d change, everything else I’d leave the way it is here.
C4 in a cleveland torino ?
@2010TurboCamaro
Actually not true. Tony has a camera man. I never watch his before shooting mine. almost always, mine are first and Tony never watches mine.
Other wise, why bother? We give you 2 completely different impressions of the same exact cars.
Jeff
Anyone know where I can buy the side decal for a 71 Torino GT like the one in this video? I'm wanting to restore mine.
never2late454 there used to be a company called Phoenix Auto Decals or something very close to that, but definitely Phoenix, that made restoration decals. I almost ordered the wood grain decals for my 1968 Country Squire . But they seemed to be the go to at the time. If they’re still in biz I’m sure they’ll have the Lazer Stripe
Remember the 428 cyclone ohhhh baby!
does that 1 have power front disc brakes
Brian Eastman tim
nice car! anyone know what it sold for?
Freaking kickass. But i'd paint it black and red.
Yes, you could have purchased a 1970 model in late 1969.
I want too know what your prices on the 69 nova to 74 year
@Peter Pietraszewski a 351? Stomping on 440s? interesting
Matthew Phipps I don’t know man. Leaving all else aside, the weight savings with a 351C versus a 440 was substantial. And the ACTUAL horsepower and torque numbers may not have been as far apart as you’d think. Gotta remember they underrated certain drivetrains’ numbers for insurance savings. The 4V Cleveland had heads specific to the 4V option. A 2V Cleveland head has much smaller ports. And if you look at the front top corner of the head you’ll see either 2V or 4V. The ports on the 4V were so big it was a bit of a dog at low RPMs. Most people agree that Ford wanted the Cleveland to become THE performance engine. Why do you think the Boss 302 used Cleveland heads, not to mention the HP and torque numbers were laughably underrated on the Boss 302. Plus Ford has to meet emission standards from the factory. They all knew that a radical cam, an 850cfm Holley, headers, and a good tune would awaken the monster. The Cleveland 4V heads were also known as the “semi-Hemi “ for the canted valve arrangement. A built 351C 4V could smoke a factory or even mildly modified big block, especially the heavy Chrysler RB. So the claim isn’t really a stretch. But the guy still doesn’t know wtf he’s talking about.
Fleming is trying to pull a fast one here. This is a '71 Torino GT with the hideaway headlight option. It's also been wrecked in the front and poorley repaired. The grill should be flush,not drooping down as it appears here. The "shaker" hood feature was only available in '71. This is a leper of the first order and should be avoided at all costs. If you have ever heard the term "white elephant"...this is it. This car is sloppy. A true Torino GT is tight looking. This looks cobbled together.
Correct on all that, but the shaker was available on the 70 gt m code gt also. Obviously the J code 429 also
'Needs CHROME bumpers.
i would have left bumpers chrone
the head liner was not falling down lol
This is blasphemy what they done to that car!!
Can I live in your garage?
they bought it 1969 but this is a 70?
ImmortalCobra maybe they bought it in December of '69
Most cars in this and many other eras always come out in September of the year before. So the 1971 Torino actually came out in September of 1970
@@joejones9944 ...exactly
damn it's a 4speed Torino didnt make many
dam does not look good in white.
The signature on the deck lid is of the late Bill Shenk...original designer of the 1970 Torino. NOT the owner who restored the car. Do more homework and educate yourself before flipping cars you know nothing about.
Thank You! I was going to mention that myself, but am glad I didn't have to. Bill Shenk must have been turning over in his grave at that one! "What a maroon! What a nin-cow-poop!" (Kudos to Bugs Bunny for that one!)
There are other issues with this car that have also been addressed - like the hide-away headlights, and that drooping grille, among others. Something about it just looks "wrong" in the way of body lines. It's not lean and tight like I would expect a Torino of that vintage to be. It just looks loose and sloppy.
I owned a 1971 GT SportsRoof with the 351C-4V, C6 Console shift, hi-back buckets, burgundy paint, clean straight chrome and all black interior. No A/C, laser stripe, or louvers on the back window. It was bought in 1978 for my 21st birthday from my husband. I owned it until 1995. I did scads of research on the production stats, got photostatic copies from the DMV of all the prior owners (3 I think), worked on it with my mechanic husband, and had to do some emergency repairs on her when I found myself stranded in the middle of winter in Northwestern Indiana in a small farm town with one gas station, and a busted hose.
The attendant/"mechanic" wanted more money than I could spend to replace it for me, so I bought a piece of hose from him for 50¢ and did it myself. With my own tools. He purposely cut off a piece of the wrong size, much too long, and I made him switch it for the right one. I wasn't going to be so easily foiled!
It doesn't sound like much work for you guys who do this sort of stuff in your sleep, but it was a very short piece of hose in a hard to reach place, and although I don't care at all about getting my hands dirty, it was extremely cold in February in Indiana and I couldn't do it with my gloves on. I had also just come from my doctor, who had diagnosed me with my first case of Indiana bronchitis. (Coming from Southeastern Virginia, where it's warm almost all the time, Indiana winters were hard on me. They still are!)
However, I managed to get it changed out, with the hose clamps with the screw adjusters, a pocket knife, a pair of pliers and a screwdriver. I used the water hose at the gas station to fill the radiator back up, and waved to a scowling station attendant as he watched me drive away, off to the pharmacy where I needed to pick up prescriptions for my bronchitis! THAT is what I needed my money for, and had little enough to spare after paying the doctor and the rent at the first of the month!
Ahh - enough reminiscing - thanks for letting me ramble on about the first car I fell in love with, and my very first car that was all my own!
Thanks for that info!!
looks to be smoking
puffin some oil out back
A car that looks like this is being given away in my hometown at the local casino ,but who cares it's a ford
