Topic: Picking up parts collection & '76 ElitePosted: 25-February-2025 at 4:56PM |

Evening All-
This is a heads up, I worked out a deal with fellow member from GTS org and I am buying all of his Torino parts collection. If you are on the main Torino related FB groups, GTS org, 68-79 Torino, and the 72 Torino groups, I have posted up on those groups...and got absolutely flooded with parts requests. I'll post up some of the pictures from TorinoDan on what I am picking up from him. A lot of the stuff, mainly 72 Gran Torino front end parts, seem to be spoken for, but I am going to have over a dozen large totes or more of parts, multiple boxes, interior parts, trim parts, and one wayward '76 Ford Elite. I needed this Elite like I needed a hole in my head, but it's coming back home with me. With that said, I am working to find homes for this stuff. I am not trying to hold onto things for another 25 years of my life so I will post up what I have for pics now, and then as I go through everything, I will post things up. I don't want to clutter up the for sale section, so my goal is to create a list and update as I go. I am heading up this weekend for the Elite and first load of parts, with a return trip next weekend unless it gets nasty out. (it's been 66F here for. high the lest couple days...fool's spring...but I'll take it until Friday night!!) I'll also try to put a short video on my YouTube channel of the adventure...because...why not document the pain and suffering ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

I don't need anything specific, but once you get the parts and a full list I'd might be interested in getting a few spare parts from you.

Have fun going through that stash, and let's see what treasure is in there. I also don't need anything really, except maybe doors and door panels. But I hope you enjoy the new project and it keeps you busy.

Doors are actually going to a buddy in Omaha. He’s the closest to me and really needs a pair of usable doors as his are complete trash.
Might be able to find doors on the wymore, Nebraska yard but hell man, sawzall Joe should have at least 16 sets in Tennessee ![]() I really need to find a home for this Elite. I am not keeping it, hopefully someone needs a complete car with 351w/C4 setup. Tach cluster car as well. Shame she’s not cleaner but it is a 70’s Ford ![]() Hopefully I manage to just move stuff but I have a feeling I’ll be getting my eBay profile updated to sell parts.

I could use the black dash if it has an uncut radio opening as well as some black Sport door and interior panels.

Should be covered for that. Shoot me a message either here or on Facebook messenger. Trying to keep folks requests inline has been nuts.

Dash is brown. Cracked in normal spot lower left bottom edge. Shipping dashes is an expensive problematic deal. Not sure where you’re located? Send me a message and I can let you know.the shell overall looked intact aside from the crack. |
