Description
Here is a Beautiful 1974 Ford Gran Torino in Mint ConditionThis may be one of the best 1974 Ford Gran Torinos that you will find. It is in Mint Condition. I really hate to part with this car. I bought it 4 years ago and I have only put on a little over 100 miles on it. It has been in my garage and I only drove it around town a few times and I put it in a couple of car shows. This car turns heads wherever I go. People have told me that this car could pass for a new car. When I first bought it I had some things done to it:New Vinyl TopNew CarpetingNew door carpetingNew seat carpetingNew BatteryNew StarterNew rebuilt AlternatorNew RegulatorNew Carburator (Holly. Brand new)New am/fm cassette in dash radio and 4 new speakers 5 way Jensen and 2 underdash speakersNew underdash am/fm/cd/usb/1/ jack/DVD (Great Sound)New wheel well chrome (rearNew Ignition ModuleNew CoilNew Fuel Pump ( original ford just installed)New clock (crystal accurate to within 1 minute a year)New brake release leverNew fuel tank sensorNew trunk gasketI have a lot of receipts from the previous owners also. Here is what I know that was done to this car before I bought it:Transmission rebuiltNew TiresProfessional Painted (all chrome was removed) I also have pictures of the car before it was painted and it really didnt even need it. Steering box replacedAir Conditioner compressor replacedNew BrakesTune up and new muffler and tail pipeI also have been in contact with some of the previous owners and I have their contact information. This car has spent most of its life in Arizona and FloridaI have the names of all owners since it was bought. I also have a new power steering pump. rebuilt carburator. xtra hub cap. oor mirror and brochures and books about this car. I have a box of extra parts. gnition. oils. tcexThis car is immaculate inside and outside. When you sit in it the interior looks exactly like you are sitting in the showroom when it was new. Beautiful blue seats. headliner perfect. the dash is beautiful with every control working. There is not one rip in the seats. (they look like new). All lights work everywhere. horn. turn signals all work. the hood and trunk lights work also On the outside. the chrome is all in mint like new condition with no pitting. I replaced the two wheel well chrome in the rear with new ones (ford original) brand new. I also had the two front chrome wheel well ones repaired and buffed like new. The paint on this car is perfect. Repainted a few years ago and it looks like new. The front grill and both bumpers are as good as new also. I had the vinyl top replaced in 2011 and I had them put 1/4 inch padding under it . so that is beautiful also. This car is so clean. it could be put in a showroom and look like a new car. Now the good part: When you turn the key. it starts quick and the idle stays around 700 rpm. ( I had a new high torque starter put in it and it really starts fast). This car does not burn oil or drip oil either. It drives absolutely perfect. Shifting is smooth and the steering is straight and the handling is excellent. (drives like a new car) You can take it on the expressway and at 70 mph handles fine. I replaced the original ford carburator with a new holly and then I sent the original carb to National Carburator and they completly rebuilt the original one. I have it still in the shipping box ready to install if you wanted to put it in. (Looks like a new carb now). However the holly works really great so that would be up to the buyer if he wants to put the original in. The metal is clean under the hod. under the car and in the trunk. The only negative I can mention is a very small corner of the drivers door has a slight rust spot. ( and I mean really small). - This car is ready for the road or for the shows. It can be towed to your house or you can pick it up and drive it home. I live South of Chicago next to Joliet. Illinois next to rt 80. Any questions. call me or text me at 708-227-4477 my name is Mel-On Apr-04-15 at 08:51:40 PDT. seller added the following information:I have added 3 more pictures of items that are included with this sale. Books. A brand new am/fm/8track radio (still in box. RCA) the original drivers outside mirror. nbsp;several chrome Gran Torino emblems. original Ford Brochure. an extra hubcap. Also. as mentioned the air conditioner compressor was changed. however it will need to have a recharge of freon. The spare tire is new. The bumper jack and lug wrench are also in the trunk and I have a rebuilt power steering pump in the box that goes with it also. (the one in the car works perfect though and doesnt need replacement.
