We had a track day on Monday with our Hungarian US Ford forum. OK, a Gran Torino is very far from a modern car, but still a lot better I've expected. It was really fun to drive. Cool







A lot more images from all participants can be seen here.

Not a '69 Mach I 4-speed, but I didn't win the lotteryWink

My wife is a huge S&H fan, so I get an old Ford to play with, and she gets the car she wants...pretty good deal, I'd say.

I was cruising home from work and saw this S&H car in the parking lot of a dorm on Dyess AFB in Texas. Pretty shocked to see any Torino, so I went back and took these pictures. Not correct year or model, but the car was pretty nice.

Nice car but the stripe does not work well with the fastback roofline (JMO).

Always thought if someone did an S&H stripe specific for a Sports Roof it MIGHT look alright.

really like the black interior with the red stripe. Many years ago a freind of mine and I bought a 74 Gran Torino sport out of a corn field for $300. It had a mint rally style interior (just like the one in your car) desent running 400/C6 and a TOTALLY rotted frame and under body. He drove the car for work for about 2 months before the frame issues started showing there ugly head. without telling me he just junked the car and never gave me a chance to remove the interior. You have an awesome car there take care Dan

I love the interior I haven't seen any others like it I'm sure they're out there though, I think I'm just gonna leave it like it is except the front seats, I'll get then redone and once the motor goes its gettin tweaked a little bit thanks for the comments and sorry to hear about the scrapped gts that's sad

On the track again.







We celebrated the 49th birthday of the Stang. So a bit off topic clip, still my Gran Torino can be seen several times:



And all images of the event can you see here.

Hey guys, I have a bunch of original 35mm film clips of the old Starsky & Hutch tv series and most of the film frames feature the Gran Torino. Would anyone like me to try scanning them and posting them when I get time?

  Actually, as far as the '76 LEs are concerned, there were a total of 1103 units made:
 
2 "pilot production" cars (used to test the assembly line process and have a product to inspect afterwards)
 
1 promotional car (used for the Chicago Auto Show)
 
1,000 units for US sale
100 units for Canadian sale
 
All LE units were made in Lorain, Ohio (I think), although the actual cars used in ther TV show came from Chicago (I think)

Kit, you have that backwards... TV cars came from Loraine, OH and the LE were built in Chicago, IL
