Hi, I'm a new member living in Stuttgart, Germany but originally from the US. I've seen these forums for a while now. I've always liked the 72-76 Torinos, but never registered since I didn't own one. I still don't unfortunately, but after reading the Facebook post from a few weeks encouraging people to register, I decided to register anyway. I'm afraid I won't be able to contribute much, but looking forward to learning all I can about these cars. If I ever wind up back in the US and find a Torino of my own, it'll come in handy!

We have a facebook? Germany, cool! I've never been outta my back yard, due to being a bubbleboy and all... You guys check that movie out, its hilarious. Welcome, these guys know everything about these cars. I would assume if you read every single post, you'd have your doctorate on Ford's. Forums are awesome. I kinda figured you were from the USA with a name like higfiddles, hehe.

Thanks everyone for the welcome!

And yes, the knowledge on these forums is amazing...from sunroofs to tires and everything in between. It's nice to see the enthusiasm about these cars.

Welcome to the page. Keep looking, you can find Gran Torinos, rust may be a problem. I found a 73 sedan that was very clean so I bought it. Let me know if you find one over there.
