I just brought my 1969 Torino GT from S.C. to Michigan. It was an experience, but we made it. I'll share pics when I'm allowed. It needs some love, but I'm very pleased so far. My name is Paul Sadowski and I live in Warren Michigan.

Hi Paul, I'm a new member as of yesterday. Was just going through posts in this section, happened across this one from October of 23  Saw your other post, car looks in Great shape. Hope all is well. I live in Grosse Pointe/Detroit area and am in Warren (10mi/Haze) 3 to 4 times a week. Just pulled my 68 GT390 out of storage after 20 years. hoping to get started on mild restoration soon hear. Let me know if you're hitting any Car shows locally here this spring/summer.

Welcome Todd. I apologize for the delay, but you have been now been upgraded to a full forum member. I didn't see your new post until now since it was posted in this thread. You have full forum privileges and can upload pics. We'd love to see your Torino. Feel free to start a project thread so we can follow along the restoration.

We're making some progress. I am looking forward to sharing some of the wins. So far, we have the interior completely out and the people getting it ready say it's ready to go in the car. We have replaced the clutch, the clutch and brake pedal bushings. They were so worn that the pedals were hanging on an angle. They had worn through the bushings so long ago that they were wearing into the brackets. I have amazing neighbors, on one side is the neighbor doing the upholstery and on the other side Jeff has welded the only two small rot holes in the floor and the bracket to support the new bushings for the pedals.
