Cobra-Jet Powered Ford Gran Torino Sport | Groovy '71 Ford Thunderbird | Rare Un-Restored 70’s Fords

We’re back in Ocala, Florida to check out a couple of nearly forgotten Fords from the 1970s. These NPD collection pieces are both low mileage and rare. First up is a 1973 Ford Gran Torino Sport that’ll blow you away. With its 351cu.in. Cleveland Cobra-Jet engine and 4-speed manual transmission, this Gran Torino was the fastest one available from the factory in ’73. Coming from the NPD archives, this un-restored gem is still in like-new condition so naturally we’re going to roll a few more miles onto the odometer on the back roads of Ocala.

The 1971 Ford Thunderbird, though, was nearest and dearest to Dennis. Nicknamed “Huggy Bear,” this wild yellow T-Bird is built on the Continental Mark III platform and looks like a factory custom Lincoln with its special Brougham package. The exterior of this car is outstanding enough, but it’s what’s inside that really sets it apart. It’s totally 70s, totally un-restored, and totally fun to drive!

It’s always an excellent time checking out Rick Schmidt and his dad’s collection, but this trip was especially groovy. Enjoy this episode of My Classic Car!
