A friend that I went to high school with took me to lunch on our last day of school as seniors, in his dad's 1970 429 Ford Torino, similar to this. His was navy blue with white racing stripes up the middle. It had a Hurst 4 speed shifter in it. This one has Mercury center caps on the wheels.

Great car Lou thanks for featuring it. The gentleman does impeccable detailing/resto- really nice. Must say, Ford had REALLY cheesy interiors in the day. My dad had multiple late 60's/early 70's Ford wagons, the interiors were sooo mundane. However, body styling and what's under the hood is what counts here...real beauty.

The paint is original on the car. 53,000 miles. All that has been replaced is the camshaft. Not a bigger cam but another Ford original part. It had broke in half.

Lou:Great car and owner. A real beauty when Ford was Ford. A comment about the GM quadrajet carb used on this engine. It's the Rochester Quadrajet 4MV dual stage unit. I'm very familiar with these carburetters. Notice the British spelling as I've always been accustomed due to the fact my automotive repair training started in Great Britain. The reason Ford used this carb is because there was a strike a the Motorcraft carburetter division. So Ford did a deal with GM to supply the carbs needed especially since this was a high performance engine. I've modified quite a few Ford and Chrysler V8 engines using this same carb in the past with impressive results. So much so that guys begged me to do the conversion to their cars and pick up trucks for better performance. Those 429 Cobra jets could literally fly in their day. Ford had a "force to be reckoned with" when it came to absolute raw performance especially on the race track which explains why these are so legendary. Have a great day and happy holidays.

Paul Kirkland ; The "J" code 429 was the Super Cobra Jet. "J" code used a 780 Holley, 4 bolt mains, 3:91 or 4:30 rear and a engine oil cooler which is supposed to be mounted on the left side of the radiator core support behind the grill. So this "beauty"is pretty much a fake.
