I have a 1970 Ford Cobra Torino 429scj C6 w/ Drag Pack. It is dissassembled and ready for the restoration to be completed. I got shafted by the previous bodyshop and i'm testing the water. It is documented and comes with all paperwork. I'm willing to sale or trade for something clean/reliable/interesting/decent mpg.

The Body

This is where it gets interesting. The car was back halfed with a yellow 4spd car. The trunk still possess the 4spd hump with the staggered shock access plates. Some of you will call bullshit but the work done to save this car back in the 1970's was premium work and at first glance you think this car was repaired by a Ford Dealership or a nationally renowned body/collision shop. The work is exemplerary.

Car possess all of its original windows and none of them are cracked.

Both front fenders are prep'ed and ready for final and paint

The hood is a home made shaker hole and holes for the hood locks cut into it. To me the hood is no salvageable due to structural damage at the passenger side area where the hood hinge mounts. I do have a very nice clean Torino hood that will require the hood lock holes to be cut and the shaker hole to be cut

Both doors are solid. The passenger side one is done and ready for final prep and paint. the drive side door came from a Grabber Green car and was maybe a GT or 4 door car as the side view mirror is wrong and had the holes for the molding through the middle of the door. The sanding and prep work has been started and the holes were welded and grinding was started to smooth them out

Passenger side quarter panel has seen significant work and massaging with wheel wells being patch paneled and cleaned up nicely. There is an area in the fron of the quarter panel up to the where the door lock is that needs work to be finished. The area inside of the fender that holds the quarter-window and mechanism will need to be wielded back in and cleaned up. This are was removed in order to get the quarter panel pushed back out.

Driver side Quarter Panel was started and is in the beginning phases.

Trunk board is amazing is and so is the deck lid

rear floor boards are great

Front floor boards are solid. If anything the passenger side will require a toe board and that would be for a perfectionist

Cowling is fine and shows no leaking

Front grill is complete and very very nice maybe one small small crack in it.

Both bumpers appear to have been rechromed sometime along the way

I have all the lights for the car and their good driver quality

Wiring
The car had a serious rat issue and will need a Chassis Harness (rat nest is still in the car with the foam and cotton from the drivers seat ). The engine harness is ugly but functional and the dash harness may need to be replaced, I feel this is the reason the car will not turn over via the key. There is significant wires under the dash that has been chewed thru and one of them matches the color at the starter relay. Seatbelt / Battery / Brake lights do eluminate when the key is turned on.

Interior
The interior is probably 90% complete. The front seat will need to be redone. The back bench is amazing and cleaned up near perfect with Armorall when we took it out. The Cobra door panels are decent driver quality. The Dash is near perfect and cleans up great. I threw the carpet out as the rats got the best of it. The headliner is ok for driver quality



I'm not exactly sure what to ask for it but I'm not going to give it away. These car's don't come up everday due to the limited # of survivors. If your serious about the car and your serious about buying it then shoot me an offer. I'm not desperate to sell it. My house isnt getting getting foreclosed on. I have $12k invested in the car and im expecting to take a serious hit on it. I may be willing to keep the heads/3.91 n-case/carb w/intake and sell them seperately on ebay if someone just wants the car itself.
