Well after a long time of gathering parts here and there i finally started bringing the old girl back to her glory. This week the quarter panels were put on just thought i would post up a few pics for every one to see. Also I will post up some other areas i still have to fix. Also there are a few pictures i included of my 66 charger, the coupe were building my little sister,my dads 73 plymouth satllite, and the few other cars laying around the lot.

Beautiful Torino! I had a 72 gran torino sport back in the 80's yellow and black interior. I have always loved the older torinos.

Looks like you have a few other nice projects.

Yeah thanks guys im getting tired of her rusting so i thought its time to change that. Yeah I have a few other projects but they are deff on hold. Atleast till i get the majority of the torino finished.

As for the T/A my grandpa bought it for his wifes b day a few years ago. I know they were thinking of sellining it I will ask and let you know for sure.

The '68 & '69 Torino fastbacks are my all time favorites! I have loved them since I was a young Blue Oval fan. I would love to see this car in person so to speak! It's going to be a beauty!

Nice car! I'm partial to those b/c my first car was a '68 Fairlane. If it wasn't a 4 door, I'd still have it!

That Grand National is either an '84 or '85. Worth about $5K in great shape...$2K as it sits if anyone is knowing what it's worth.

Thanks!
Yeah thats what i figured on price for the grand national, i offered him 3500 and he told me no. So im guessing its alot higher than that. Oh well every one thinks they have a gold mine lol.

Oh sorry yeah i got the price yesterday and just forgot to post it. Like I said it is priced way to high. I asked my grandpa and he said he wanted like 13,000 dollars. I asked him if that was in pesos or something, because your nuts. I will vouch that it was all redone great, and it runs real good. But not 13,000 dollars worth of great lol. Sorry he's nuts if every comes down to a real price I will let you know.
