Very rare "R" code 1969 Torino GT 428CJ

Special cars like this one are hard to find, especially with a cool story and factory documentation. This rare, true "R" code 1969 Ford Torino GT Fastback is a great piece of the muscle car history. 1 of only 1285 that were produced with the sought after Ram Air 428 Cobra Jet Cu In V8 and backed by the C6 select-shift cruise-o-matic transmission. Braking power comes from the power front disc brakes. This Torino is still sporting the ram air optional air cleaner. This Cobra Jet runs and drives just as it should. The red exterior is in excellent condition. The chrome and stainless trim are also in very good condition. The exterior is enhanced by the fastback stance, Chrome GT style wheels, black factory style stripes, and the factory functional hood scoop. The factory black interior is in very good condition. Nicely optioned with factory clock, factory in dash tach, power steering, dual rear speakers, bucket seats, center console, factory seat belts, and factory tinted glass. Included in the sale of this Torino GT is some great documentation. That documentation includes the original window sticker, original build sheet, Marti report, and a copy of the magazine that the car was featured in. Part of the great story behind this Ford is the previous owners hunt for the Torino that got away. The story is documented in the "Mustang & Ford" magazine that this Cobra Jet was featured in the centerfold. It started in 1971 when he was looking for a car and his mother helped him choose a 1969 351 powered Torino that was totaled by his brother a couple years later. 21 years after purchasing the first Torino, he found this beautiful 428 Cobra Jet Ram Air powered Torino GT. He kept the car and made some performance upgrades during his long time ownership of 28 years. Another part of the story is the color change. His wife was big supporter of his passion for the Torino and hated the original Meadowlark yellow exterior. So to support her in return, he repainted the Torino GT to red under the advice from his wife and mother, that was a big part of the beginning of the story. Cars like this Cobra Jet Ram Air powered "R" code 1969 Ford Torino are becoming very difficult to find. Don't miss this opportunity.
