New here so just jumping in. 71 Torino 500 SW with 351C 4v blue on blue options include the trailering special package. All original factory except carb (edelbrock) and electronic ignition. Even the paint is original but mostly gone. Has some slight body damage right rear due to mishap in reverse with small empty trailer. I bought this car 19 years ago from original owner and have ALL the original paperwork. I’ve let it sit too long so now considering restoring. Needs a bunch like probably dropping gas tank, changing all fluids, plugs, battery, hoses, etc. just to get it running and driving. Then I can maybe get the body right. The interior is good. I live in southern Alabama and really don’t have the proper place to work on this myself. Does anybody have any suggestions as to where I can take it to in my area?
Thanks, Forrest

Welcome! As you can tell by my screen name, I'm a huge fan of Ford wagons. I currently have a 72 Torino Squire wagon and a 71 Torino Brougham hardtop. Would love to see some pictures of your 71 wagon.
One of the members here, Carl Corey, has a shop in LA. The name of his shop is CaNDe Customs located in Geneva.
