1974 Ford Gran Torino Sport.
Car runs and drives great and would make for a wonderful daily driver, weekend car, or an easy restoration project. I'll breakdown the rest for easy reading.
The Good:
-Two door
-Garage kept
-No rust
-Low miles (78,000)
-Great interior
-New tires
-New alternator
-Brand new carpet
-Interior is near perfect
-Chrome is all there and in great condition
-Runs strong
-Does not require smog
-Paint is good and original (one problem area on hood, see pictures)
-No peeling or damage to the vinyl top (read more about the vinyl top below)
-Unique classic car (people always stop to look and talk about it)
The Bad:
-There's some surface rust on the left hand side of the hood (see pics). Luckily the hood comes off easy so if you choose to repaint it it won't cost much. If you are handy you might elect to do it yourself.
-There's a small ding on the right fender lip. It's subtle and would be an easy fix. (see pics, but it's hard to make out)
-Slight paint discoloration where an old bumper sticker used to be. (see pics)
Other Info:
The vinyl roof is in great condition and has been properly taken care of, however if you would rather have a hardtop you are in luck, because the conversion is supposedly simple, however I can not say for certain, as the vinyl has never been replaced or removed.
I've read testimonials saying that once you remove the vinyl that it's just a matter of removing the glue and then you are good to go, and I've read others that say that the top will need paint afterward. I guess Ford did the vinyl tops differently over time. There's a few Torino and Starsky and Hutch fan sites on the web that may be able to further assist you if you decide to do the conversion.
Other:
Car is for sale locally and I reserve the right to cancel the auction early.
You can make an appointment to come see the car, just need a days notice.
I check my mail frequently, so feel free to ask any questions at any time.
Won't ship the car for you, but will work with shippers if you decide to go that route.
Payment:
Cash, credit card, wire, or Paypal.
Thanks for looking, happy bidding!

You can now order Domino's pizza from your Sync-equipped Ford
Tue, 07 Jan 2014
The news keeps pouring in from the Consumer Electronics Show now underway in Las Vegas, and the latest comes from Ford which has announced two new apps for its Sync AppLink system.
First up is a cooperative app launched by Ford together with Domino's Pizza that lets drivers of the former order pizza from the latter right from their car. The service allows those with Ford Sync AppLink in their car or truck and are registered with a Domino's Pizza Profile to place an order for their favorite pie using Dearborn's voice-recognition software for either pickup or delivery. Save your information in your Pizza Profile and it'll be sent to your house without even the push of a button, which strikes us as awesome a use of technology as we've ever seen.
More evidence GT500-replacement will be named GT350
Tue, 17 Dec 2013During the recent unveiling of the 2015 Ford Mustang, we saw the car in both V6 and GT form, but we'll have to wait a little bit longer to see the successor to the Shelby GT500. In the meantime, though, it looks like SVTPerformance.com has confirmed reports that this high-performance model will bring the Shelby GT350 name back to Ford.
According to the forum post, a user found the Shelby GT350 name on a Ford promo website listing its 2015 lineup. The Shelby GT350 name was first used on a Mustang back in 1965, and most recently it has been a model created for customers as a post-title purchase by Shelby American. As for that car, Shelby confirmed earlier in the year that its GT350 would be phased out at the end of this month.
The million-dollar question for Mustang and Shelby enthusiasts is when we'll see next factory Shelby GT350. Last we heard it was planned for a debut at the New York Auto Show. We've included our previous spy shots of this hi-po, sixth-gen Mustang, and we've also captured it on spy video showing off its exhaust note.
Enterprise working with renter's insurance to cover $47k Mustang stolen from its lot
Sat, 11 Jan 2014There was more than a bit of public indigence following the recent story of Enterprise Rent-A-Car billing a customer $47,000 to replace a Ford Mustang GT Convertible stolen from a Nova Scotia lot. To recap: Kristen Cockerill rented the Mustang for two days, returned it to the lot on a Sunday and left the keys in a secure dropbox only for Enterprise employees to find the car gone the next day.
Despite Enterprise policies stating that customers are responsible for vehicles dropped on off-days, the company has admitted that the situation could've been handled a bit better.
In a recent statement, Enterprise has backed off the big-bill story, and claims to be working with Cockerill and her insurance company to resolve the issue. Further, the Enterprise general manager overseeing Nova Scotia has spoken with the harried renter, and apologized "for the way this claim was handled during the last few months."
