Been there done that. Went to tow a wrecked car out of some guys front yard one morning. When we got there there was no steering wheel and no brake pedal???? Apparently the guy was driving it with one of those aftermarket steering wheels and took it with him on his drunk stumble home. Unfortunately he didnt take the brake pedal with him, there just wasnt one, only the small metal plate the rubber snaps over. Maybe that played a part in him crashing. The guys brother brought the wheel with him when he came to pick the car up.

Oh yeah... I haven't taken a picture of my Torino's interior since I actually pulled those seats out and dyed them again . I had to replace the dash... I bought a green one. The shiny black dash against the dulled out seats didn't look that good so I took the seats and panels back out and dyed them again. It looks a lot better now!

Mine isn't a coupe or anything but it's been in my family since 97. My dad's good friend (a father figure to him) bought this new in 83 and gave this to my dad when he died and dad gave it to me. Paint and all is original and it's in excellent condition. Only thing I've done is buy a new intake manifold and converted it from a 2-barrel to a 4-barrel

I'm glad post has taken off so well, everything looks GREAT! Thanks to everyone for contributing! And PLEASE, keep them coming!!!!! LOVE that Torino and that MINI! I really like those little hatchback cars, fun to rip around in... like the Si, that might be my next investment.

Correction: the Civic's door panel wieghs the car in sections, when my friend read it he was only reading one section of the car... Sorry about that, my bad! Curb wieght is 2606lbs or 1182Kgs...

Thanks again, and keep the posts coming!!!
