Just joined here! I am partially through a 72 Torino restoration (just a base 302 Gran formal roof). Have rebuilt/restored the engine, interior, electrical, accessories to the point where everything works. Reconditioned or restored as much as possible to keep cost down, now just body left. Have blasted and painted most of the body components minus the main sheet metal. Body comes off soon then frame and rear end will be restored also. I'm on the hunt for some hard to find 72 front end parts so thought i'd join here. I am also 3 years into my project and have fixed or replaced most of the car so hoping I can offer assistance so i'll keep my eyes peeled. Thanks.
