The Brothers Collection has a mint, more or less loaded (can't remember if it has factory power windows and seats, air, AM/FM). Black on black with the laser stripes Torino GT 429 SCJ convertible. This red one you sold, lucky new owner, hope he drives it.
@@Johnnycdrums The car in this vid is simply a "Cobra Jet 429." The car you mentioned from Brothers,if a "429 SCJ" stands for "SUPER Cobra Jet 429" SCJ for short. Another performance level UP from this car (especially if ordered with "Drag Pack" option.
I'm the original owner. This car was not in a barn, in our garage. It came with what was called trim rings for the wheels. I put on craiger super revered mags but they were to wide, rubbed on the inside when turning, so settled on Mickey Thompsome slot mags. You people have to realize when I ordered this car, it was 1970, mags were limited kinda unknown. As for what the car was going to cost, info on a 1971 was not available yet, we were going off of a 1970 Torino.0
I would have sold a lung before selling this girl. I owned a 71 GT 429 hard top, green with 3M stripe, and bought her used in 1983 as a senior in HS. Paid a whopping $1250.00 for her. Biggest regret is selling her in 1987. Also had to run reverse offset centerlines due to fender clearance issues as Dawn said.
My brother bought a 1970 yellow Torino Cobra 429SCJ Drag pack with traction bars, L60 Dunlop in rear G60 in front, Cragar deep dish rear, had choice of gold or black fuzzy T handles, car could scream Vietnam Vet ordered brand new in 69 , had 4 years and sold it to brother, that guy new how to drive that car ! Sold it in 1975 for 1800.00, 😥
That was Steve and Dawn’s pride and joy. I’m best friends with the original owners daughter and I remember growing up, they would take her out for a joy ride from time. I got lucky a couple times and got to go with. I rode along with Steph to her graduation and it was amazing!! The car doesn’t like to go slow at all. I was so sad when I found out they sold it. But Bill got her restored to her beautiful state. Funny thing, Bill is a cousin of mine. This video made me tear up some.
So special, so rare, so beautiful. A perfect cream of the crop best of the best from the best days of American muscle. It would take a Shelby GT to outshine it and even then, THIS particular rare build would STILL hold its own.
I owned the triple black 1971 429 Cobra Jet Torino Convertible 4 speed. It’s in a different collection in Piedmont California now. I also owned a ‘70 429 CJ Torino Convertible in green with white top. That car was a column shift auto non ram air car. Lastly I also owned three of the super cobra jet drag pack torino convertibles that were built in 1970. One black, one maroon, one yellow. My yellow one was published in Hemmings Muscle Machines in May 2009 issue after I did a rotisserie restoration on it. I went after and bought many of the CJ and SCJ convertible Torino’s for years.
I had a 1970 , same color , not a convertible , had a 428 , automatic, and currently looking for one, mine was also in mint condition,, no one would probably believe this story but I bought it in the summer between my 7th and 8th grade,, it was the most owsome car, it was indeed very fast,
Bob,you are the owner of the worlds most beautiful car ever made ,yes i mean that my friend i really do ,ever made now thats a big statement but in my opinion it does not get better than this gorgeous Torino ,this cars worth is priceless
I totally agree. I had a 1971 Torino 500 two door. A guy who worked at a local auto parts store had a red convertible 1970 GT, 351C engine. To this day, maybe the most beautiful car I’ve ever seen. It dropped my jaw at the time in a way that has barely faded with memory. Those hips and that line from the fender down the door ……..oh my god I lost my breath. That car seriously brings a tear to my eye. In person it makes you weak in the knees. Good god. What a car. Motor Trend Car of the Year in 1970.
WOW, what a beautiful example of the Torino GT! Thanks for this video. In September 0f 1973, I bought a 1970 Torino GT 351, auto, with bucket seats and console. I met my wife 5 or 7 days after I bought the car! I sold it two years later, when I got orders for Germany and was told by my brother, that it would be too big to drive over there! I have regretted selling it ever since! And BTW, before leaving Germany, I bought a full sized 73 Plymouth stationwagon and drove that all over Europe, including downtown Amsterdam! LOL Again, thanks for the video! GREAT CAR!
From watching the original acquisition of the car I was convinced Euroasion Bob was going to keep this car for his private collection. However having put it up for sale immediately I feel he has taken advantage of the original owners !
The whole plan was to get it from the old man and sell it for a nice healthy profit I've seen this all the time even in the military Club I'm in hit the Widow up and get the car vehicle cheap and then dumped it for a nice profit
I found a very similar car locally that I took a picture of and posted on Facebook lately. It is a GT with same color body and convertible top though GT emblem is in a different place and I don't think it has a hood scoop. It has a black wing on trunk. There used to be a black Torino locally that had the Cobra Jet engine. I wish I had the money to make an offer but they ended up moving away.
Hey, Spec! I agree with you on that. Back in the late 60s and early 70s "Mag" wheels were a "must have" on any hot rod from the Tri~5 Chevy's to the pony cars. In a reference to one of your last videos, it was the early Latino car clubs (the Dukes, or the Chicanos) that brought "Baby moon" hubcaps into the mainstream. Along with the Low Riders that is what defines Mexican spec in the car community.
@@theanomalous1401 Magnesium wheels were on every heavy bomber in WWII. When the guys came home and got into hot rodding they all wanted lightweight ”mag wheels.". Except for some factory racing wheels, virtually all were cast aluminum.
Problem with true magnesium wheels is that if they get a good enough ignition source they will burst into flames in spectacular fashion. Not exactly safe.
the intermittents were a good choice, considering the ford link pivots soon wear sloppy, becoming very noisy on an a body with otherwise super low self-noise
Here's a fact. In 1971 I saw a house in North Carolina for sale. A 3 bedroom ranch style. 1 car carport. 1 bath. $5,000. Less than this car.'s base price. IN A NICE AREA that is STILL nice to this day. Yes, the house looks it's age and it does look tiny. That year - you could buy a new motorcycle (Yamaha R5 350B) with a full tank of gas and two helmets for about $800. You could buy a Volkswagen squareback for under $3,000. And I think my family's black vinyl top gold '72 Oldsmobile '98 w/Rocket V8 455 cost less than this. This car with it's spec was just out of reach for most. ABSOLUTELY a head-turner day one.
I'm the original owners daughter. Only reason we let it go is because i wanted it restored and i knew my parents couldnt afford it. I wanted to see her restored and enjoyed like she was meant to be..... on my graduation, i had her doing 90 mph in second gear before i decided that i was being stupid... lol. And for the record, she was in a garage, not a barn. Not all garages have concrete floors. And the only reason she needed restoration is because the roof started leaking and because we lived in rural America, by the time we found someone willing to put a new roof on it, the damage was done. Before that, the worst thing wrong was the convertinle top needed replaced because my brother accidentally broke the back window out with a baseball. When a new one was ordered, ford got the size wrong and the new window slowly shredded the top. And those pics are deceiving because that stuff was covering the hole in the convertible top to keep out mice and pack rats
Autolite 4200 was the standard Ford four barrel carb, and would have been used on a regular 429-4V. A Carter AFB(aluminum four barrel) was on some of the CJs and in the SCJs it was the Holley. Holleys are best for performance tuning, easily, but drink gas, and take a rebuild more often, but a rebuild is a piece of cake. The Carter AFB in my opinion was the best overall design and least maintenance/rebuild intervals. Strangely enough, when and where the carb was a Carter or a Rochester Quadrajet is a mystery to me. I suspect the Quadrajet would have been a California thing, as they got better mileage, if you could restrain yourself. The primaries were small, which honestly made for better around town driving, tip-in was smoother, and bottom end torque was better, and the secondaries were massive, seemingly the best of both worlds. BUT, rebuilding a Quadrajet is not for the faint of heart, and if left to sit too long or some bad gas could lead to varnish or gum developing on the jet needles, and then it all went downhill quickly. In top tune, a Quadrajet COULD outrun a Holley, same engine. IF you could get the car to stick, and roll into the vacuum which brought in the secondaries, as they were so big it could bog off the line even with the best of tunes. The Holleys are easy to build and easy to tune, and are a racers friend, but hung bowls make for leaks and those same bowls are for weird float set up, and sometimes you have to give it a higher idle speed to compensate. Holleys are designed to make power, period. Rarely on factory cars, and quite a noticeable point when done. The Autolite carbs were, well, Ford carbs, and while they were fine carbs, easy to rebuild, made good power and all of that, they were designed for consistency and to meet emissions standards and fuel economy standards. A Carter is comparable but made more power, decent mileage, but always idled rich. Quadrajets are the greatest all around but the needles gum up if they sit for a year or maybe several months if the gas was cheap or crappy, and as said before, a rebuild is a royal pain. You almost need a jig to line everything up when putting it back together. I’ve given up several times and was never successful. Gave one to a specialist, and it was for a boat. Bolted it in, and it idled better than ever, started every time, and jumped onto a plane like never before. Next season, after sitting for five months, it took a lot of draining the carb by disconnecting the fuel supply and cranking it with WOT, then plumbing in a little gas tank with premium 93 octane, not for the octane, but for the detergents, mixed with some store bought additives of various makes and qualities , and letting that fuel sit, drain, repeat, and maybe three gallons of gas, unlit it would idle right. We used the fuel from the boat’s tank in the lawnmower for the next year, and ran only premium in the boat tank for the summer and then put in two bottles of Sta-Bil and believe it or not that worked. Also some Marvel Mystery Oil carefully poured in the carb while running, just a trickle, helped clean the intake valves, cause you could hear the rocker arms tapping the valve stems with a stethoscope st first. Luckily it being a low compression 8:1 boat engine the valves didn’t hit the pistons, and it was only a few of them, I guess the ones which were closed while sitting, maybe held the fuel which varnished over time. Luckily that stuff on the stems didn’t t tear up the valve stem seals, cause the engine had been rebuilt just before getting the carb rebuilt. No excuse for burning oil.

As far as I know there is no such thing as a GT Cobra.. the GT was one model, it was available with a 429 Cobra Jet.. then there was a cobra which was only available as a two-door Fastback hardtop.. also 71 cobras do not have the word Torino on the car.

Likely would have brought more $$ if left as an ORIGINAL "Survivor". IMO, with all that documentation,low milage,original owner then custodial chain etc. Unless it had MAJOR rust issues,engine blown up etc, would of been best just to just CLEAN everything, do only mechanical repairs to make it "serviceable" running,driving, AC working, maybe a new top, = Value UNOBTANIUM $$ .

Check what type of carb is on it, most CJ's were usually factory Holley's. A ford carter AFB is very similar in design to a Holley 4bbl.
I'm the original owner. It was a carter carb. My husband would of preferred a holly.

IMO, with all that documentation,low milage,original owner then custodial chain etc. Unless it had MAJOR rust issues,engine blown up etc, would of been best just to just CLEAN everything, do only mechanical repairs to make it "serviceable" running,driving, AC working, maybe a new top, = Value UNOBTANIUM $$ .
I love you. 😊 ❤😂🎉😢😮😅😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

Sold at too low a price... For Sure... $145,000 would be low.
They spent all that money on restoration then they put cheap tires on it!
Nice Torino anyway!

And put on the Cobra decals on the quarter panels. They were not on from the factory as this car is a Torino GT
