Sweet car. Sounds pretty mean too. What kind of exhaust does it have?

And man am I jealous of all your working gauges and lights and stuff. I'm pretty sure everything electrical on my truck doesn't work.

Seriously though, sweet Torino.

Thank! TO be honest I have no idea, when the guy rebuilt the engine 20 years ago it was redone, he said some sort of glass packs. Everything but the clock works! and that interior is all original.

Looks great for a pretty old resto. Keep it running, keep it clean, and keep driving it. You're doing it justice.

Thanks! Its like driving an exotic sometimes cause no one has seen one of these things in well 20 years when I go to the local shows. Always crowds around it
