Can white be intimidating? One look at this 1969 Ford Torino GT, nd you'll certainly have your answer. This big block V8 fastback has a no-nonsense attitude, nd a down-to-business price.These cars were born for competition. The fastback Torinos were the darlings of the 1969 NASCAR season with their wind-cheating ultra sleek and long styling. This example's competitive nature is as clear as black and white, iterally. The white is used as a blank canvas. It even consumes superfluous chrome elements like the bumpers. The black is used to highlight the racy elements like the big hood scoop, ide rear wing, nd hood pins. Still, here is room for a bit of style with the pinstripes that run down the curves of this fastback's profile. After all, t's only proper to do a little showing off because this much sheetmetal really has a presence on the road.Black vinyl is always the best color when you want a mean muscle car interior. The darkness is tastefully broken up with some bright trim and bright gauges in the cool quad-pod readout dash. But just like the exterior, he true elements of boldness are reserved for the performance components. This includes the large column-mounted tach, nd the Hurst ratchet floor shifter. This is a full-size Ford, o it has plenty of room for family and friends...as long as they know how to sit down and hold on.Under the hood is what we all love to see, ig block power. This Ford 429 cubic-inch V8 has all the right moves to rule the blacktop. It's a rebuilt D1VE-6015-AA block that includes a better breathing air cleaner, erformance intake, nd Edelbrock valve covers. It exhales freely out of the three-inch stainless steel exhaust with performance X-pipe construction. Plus, he Hooker Super Competition mufflers make sure that everyone can still hear that unmistakable big block rumble. Thanks to the aforementioned Hurst shifter, t's easy to keep the automatic transmission within this motor's powerband whenever you need it. This one also inspires confidence on the road with new front shocks and welded reinforced subframe connectors in the rear. It's capped off with those iconic torque thrust wheels wearing modern Grand Am Radial GT tires at all four corners.It's time for you to have your own classic NASCAR style fun on a go-kart budget. This is a cool coupe that was born out of competition and has had that spirit fostered and enhanced over the years. Don't let someone else have this fun, all today!!!
