1970 FORD TORINO GT 429 COBRA JET CONVERTIBLE
The 1970 Ford Torino GT 429 Cobra Jet Convertible is a rare and highly sought-after classic muscle car from Ford's lineup during the height of the American muscle car era. The 1970 Torino was part of the second generation of the Torino model, which saw significant changes in both styling and performance compared to previous years. The GT version, in particular, offered a sportier trim with added performance features.
Key Features of the 1970 Ford Torino GT 429 Cobra Jet Convertible:

designed for performance.
o The 429 Cobra Jet engine was rated at 370 horsepower and 500 lb-ft of torque, offering impressive acceleration and top-end
speed.
o It was available with an automatic or manual transmission, with the four-speed manual being preferred by muscle car
enthusiasts for its performance.
2. Exterior Design:
o The Torino GT featured a long, aggressive body design with a distinct front grille, body-colored bumpers, and a stylish rear
end.
