This may be the cleanest 1974 Ford you will find I bought this car 4 years ago and it has been in my garage ever since except for the 2 shows I put it in and some service work done. I drive it around town here and there. I have only put on it a couple of hundred miles since I bought it. This car attracts a lot of attention. People have told me it looks like a new car. The nice part is it not only looks like a new car, ut it drives like a new car. I have many receipts of the work I had done to it and also from the previous owners. This car spent most of its life in Arizona and I also have the previous owners contact information and I have personally spoken with some of them by email and phone conversations. Here is a list of the work that was done to this car before I bought it:
- Transmission serviced
- Replaced air conditioner compressor
- New brakes
- New muffler
- Front end alignment
- Replaced steering box
- Tune up
- New Tires
- Professionally Painted (base coat and clear coat). ( I have pictures of the car before painting and it hardly needed to be painted ...)
Here is a list of the work that was done to it while I owned it:
- New Vinyl Top (with padding)
- New Carpeting
- New door carpeting
- New front seat back carpeting
- New starter (hi torque)
- Rebuilt alternator
- New regulator
- New carburator
- New clock
- New stereo system ( one indash am/fm/cassette ) ( one underdash 80 watts per channel am/fm/cd/dvd/usb )
- New speakers 5 way (all 4) and also 2 underdash speakers
- New gas tank sensor
- New trunk gasket
- 2 new rear wheel chrome moldings
- 2 new outside mirrors
This car starts perfect and runs smooth. Hardly a drop of oil leaking. ( had all gaskets and seals replaced in transmission) doesnt burn oi, erfect shifting and smooth handling steering. If you drive it at 70 mp, t handles perfect. Every single thing works on this car.: All guages, ll lights, orn, urn signals, adios, Terrific sound system ) Clock,Power windows. I once had an offer from a Ford Dealer if I would consider putting the car in his showroom. I have received phone calls from some major sellers of vintage cars asking me if I would like to list it with them. If you are looking for a vintage car that has had all the work done to it, ou will love this car. It doesnt need anything, nbsp;The chrome everywhere is in pristine condition. There is not any pitting or wear of any kind on the chrome. All the metal underneath the car and under the floor and the trunk is solid. This car has been garage kept and well maintained. I have all the service records and names of previous owners and a lot of extras that I am including with the purchase.
- Spare tire (new)
- jack
- lug wrench
- original carburator that I had professionally rebuilt by National Carb (still in box)
- Power steering pump (in box)
- Ford service books
- spare hubcap (new in box)
- am/fm/8track Delco Radio (new in the box)
- original radio that came with the car : am/fm/8track (needs service)
- extra gran torino chrome emblems
Someone will get a beautiful car here. I would love to keep it but I no longer have room for it so I would like to see someone give it a good home. If you have any questions, ou can call me anytime to discuss it on the phone. : 708-227-4477 I live in New Lenox, llinois (South of Chicago....Right next to Rt 80
