Always nice to have new members. tell us more of your torino story. Is it an actual sport or was the hood added?

I'm still learning a lot about the car. I got it from my wife's old neighbor she was moving to Florida and did not know what to do with her late husbands car. Been in a garage for 22 years none of the her kids wanted it.
As for the car its a 351c with 100k miles bone stock. I changed the oil primed the engine and put some gas down the carb and crossed my fingers it would start..... She fired right up. After that i changed all the fluids and cleaned her up. Then put her on the road took it out for the first time yesterday that is when i took the picture at my house. Best part the torino is staying in my brother in laws garage.

It's not a sport the hood was added on. The original is in the garage.
