73 Gran torino for sale
« on: January 04, 2008, 06:13:32 AM »
Hey guys, I will get some pics next or JD has one or two maybe. I have had this car for four years now and put alot of time and sweat into it. Just like Hot Rods impala, my car has the top end power, you can peel out if you power break and it will fish tail accross three lanes of traffic like no other car you have seen well except for maybe the general lee. I just drove it from KY to here and got 17 mpg and it only used one quart of oil on the 1800 mile trip I took. Man it was long.

146000 miles
water pump, thermostat, brakes, radiator, Power Steering pump lines, Brake lines(some), Tires, Battery, Alternator
All replaced within the past two years.
302.2 engine
3sp auto trans.
have had speedometer buried at 120mph several times

asking 2500 obo
Lets go see what I can break next

not naughty, but plenty technical and indepth w/ the reviews.  I learned a LOT just trying to figure out what they were saying!
