1977 Toronado whole or parts?

2blu442 · May 18th, 2008, 10:55 PM

A fellow car guy here in Southern Oregon just acquired a 1977 Toro with a 403 engine. I've not seen it yet, but the story is that it was a good driving car until a "sensor" went out so the car was parked. It will be going to the crusher soon, so if anyone out there has an interest in this vintage of Toronado speak up and I'll get you in touch with him! John

I have a 77 Toronado XS, and I have been looking for a pass. side quarter panel and a few other things. The only problem would be shipping the dang thing to Iowa. Could you get a look at it and see what shape It's in?

I'll give him a call and try to get some photos for you. I wish scrap metal wasn't so high, I've been told a complete American car from the 1970's is worth $400 in metal! It won't be long before even the dry rust free parts of the country will be swept clean! John
