Whilst an icon of 70"s television underneath it s also a powerful, luxurious and really fun car to drive. A quick Google search will tell you about one of the most famous TV cars of all and although the cars featured were 74 to 76 models this 73 Gran Torino,without the squared-off rear, is all but the same in appearance.And just like the TV car it sounds spectacular!<br />
<br />
The 351 Cleveland has had performance upgrades with the fitting of alloy heads, Edelbrock 4 barrel Carburetor, Edelbrock Inlet manifold, Edelbrock chrome rocker covers and air cleaner, Hedman Headers, Flow-Master dual exhaust system, MSD Distributor and Jacob Pro-Street High Performance Ignition Pack. Factory A/C, Power Steering, front Power Disc Brakes, electric windows and Alpine high output sound system.<br />
<br />
Imported from California in 2012 and until last year this particular Gran Torino has been part of a collection of TV/movie cars and used by a company for special events and appeared at many car shows in the South last year. Expect a few stone chips to the paint but apart from that it s in great condition, with clean and original floor pans and straight paneling. It has been to our specialist engine tuner and comes with its own report,new MOT and 6-months UK-wide warranty.<br />
<br />
These cars were extremely popular back in the day and not many have survived. If you like the show, the movie, or just the car, this is a no-disappointments performance Torino that s a blast to drive. Time to get that chunky knit cardigan out of the wardrobe!<br />
<br />
Part exchange considered.<br />
