Thanks everyone. To answer questions posted, the car has no rust issues at all , body mounts are all solid. I will be updating fuel and brakelines , all hoses and belts, brakes and all fluids in the spring. Also a complete tune up is planned. I may have to drop the tank but it ran fine a few weeks ago when we flushed the cooling system . It still has the AM radio but has a crack across the speaker in the dash pad. Carpet is also bad . I will be looking for replacements and also will be replacing the opera window mouldings. Other than that , it is well preserved. I found it in St Catherines Ont, next door to the Niagara Falls member. It has stock steelies on it now but 4 rallye rims , rings and caps came with it. Pics are of my 69 Torino convert [ Ford Racing crate 5.0 HO with C4 auto] and 83 Superduty [ 460 4 speed ]

Haa ha, cowboy posts on a Torino forum I have been a member of for the past 11 years. Small world eh 
BTW Taz, a Dale JR car identical to yours just sold at Noble Motors in Meaford Ontario . They had it there for over two years. I am glad they held out as they wanted good $ for it. That means the buyer will be giving it a good home.

Mine sat on the dealership lot in Tilbury as a demo model, unsold, until I bought it in late 2007.
It kinda goes along with what I've been saying here on the forum about all the 6th generation "special" editions. When ever a car lot has one, they seem to think they have gold. And usually ask twice as much as the car is worth.
There's a local used car lot with a 2003 Jeff Gordon edition. Great shape, and has the COA. Even has the original yellow lettered tires. They want $13,900 for it.
