Hey everyone. My name is Ron and I have a rough old 73 Gran Torino that I hope to start enjoying some more. There is a crazy amount of knowledge here and I will be soaking up what I can. Pleased to be here.

Welcome to the forum!  Tell us a bit about your Torino and the plans?  We'd love to see pics, regardless of the shape.  I hope we are able to help you out with your project.
 
Here is a how-to on posting photos if you need help:

While this forum doesn't have the traffic you typically see on others, you will get 10x the quality and lots of folks have forgotten more since lunch than I will ever know.

Enjoy the ride. Pun intended.

Thanks everyone. I will dig out some pics (not real tech savvy so the link will be super helpful) and get some back story and future plans posted soon. Been plenty busy with other demands but winter is here and I can now start playing again. Spending alot of time drinking in info from soooo many other builds so I can fine tune my efforts. More to follow!

Welcome Ron, and yes to posting pics! My 73 is pretty rough too, so do not worry about the condition of your car. We love them all.
