Retro Ford Torino

This is only a photoshop by someone on the BON forums but as a former owner of a '72 Torino Sport, I think it's **** cool!

Here's the link to the thread on BON.

Haha, what a coincidence. Not really a fan of the Torino though, front ends too blocky, and the grill doesnt fit with the rest of the car IMO.

I think it would've been better if they did '74-'76 Grand Torino.

I believe they stopped making fastbacks in 1973. After that, I didn't care for them.

I agree the grill could use a little tweaking but otherwise !

That wsa posted here on TMS ages ago. How do I know? I don't go to BON yet I remember that chop from ages ago. I have it saved on this computer too.

It's a nice design, best parts of the idea being the ingenuity and effort

Yeah, '74-'76 Grand Torino only existed as coupe.

But don't tell that you don't like Starsky & Hutch Grand Torino.

Of course I liked it BUT it would have been so much better as a fastback!

Well, I've never seen it before and I didn't find it through the search so I posted it.

I wasn't trying to chide you for posting, hope I didn't sound like that. I'm just a bit of a rambler. I was reminiscing lol.

I'm a little bit out of whack lately, college apps drive one nuts, and I'm awfully cranky. Once again, sorry if I sounded a little *****y
