Hi all, Just purchased a 1971 Torino Gt convertible last week from the 2nd owner since 1974. Owner was a Pastor and put the car in a garage in 1981. 351c 2v, ac, pb, ps, power top, 3 flat tires and a squirrels nest and plenty of dirt and she's all mine ! HAS solid floors and trunk. Found the build sheet in a chiltons manual in the trunk. door tag painted over but able to peel the sticker off the car and read the sticker in reverse in the mirror. Hope to be able to post pic's as the work continues.

you can carefully work the paint off the door plate too. I’ve done it. Just go slow and carefully
