ok ya bedwetters, stop teasin' here's a picture of my mostest favoritest car I ever did have when I was just a little snot nose little trouble getter intoer. this car made it real easy to be in loads of trouble with the local ticket writers. got clocked in it doing 163mph by the NYS troopers and didn't even have my liscece back yet from the previous two or three times. this car caused me to loose my driveing privilages in the great statre of NY for the rest of my life. I guess that only matters if they catch me though now doesen't it. "Good luck you Coppers"...."you'll never take me alive".

My old "FORD" that's right "Ford" Torino Cobra SCJ drag pac 4 speed with a bad a$$ Boss 429.

GET OUT!

George, do you have ANY idea what that is??? Holy cursewords Batman!!!!!!!! How many of those were made? Like 2? Do you have any idea what that'd go for at Barrett-Jackson, dude??? That might be one of the rarest Torino's ever made. Actually, it probably IS the rarest Torino ever made.

Man, alive.... man, alive.... you got any more pictures of that "unicorn"?? Seriously, you've gotta better chance of spottin' a Yeti than you do one of those.... holy crap....

well, according to all the ford guru's it never did exist. but I owned it and drove the fire out of until it was stolen. they say I'm full of malarkey untill I tell them about the little aluminum tag that was fastened to the drivers side inner wheel well. this car was custom ordered from ford by the guy I got it from. he was an electrical engineer for fords raceing/proto-type shop and it is possibly the only 1970 SCJ cobra with the Hemi to ever exsist. there are rumors of two tallidaga torinos produced in 1970 with the Naccar Boss powerplant but very little proof exsists. they built 21 mustangs that year from what I can gather but thats it. it had the full hemisphereical combustion chamber Nascar Boss 429 in it and the only one bigger was the can am engine. none of the only three produced made it into production cars. so the nascar is mighty rare. the "streetBoss" was a wedged hemi. and quite a few were produced compaired to the nascar, but still not many. the nascar was was left raw and unbalanced so the end user could do it his way. I have never stoped searching for this car since it was stolen when I was 19. I wouldn't even press charges if I could have it back. I'm building a '71 Cobra right now but it still ain't the same.
