Stop by Morgan Hill sometime, I'll be there for another 87 years, until i become 100. ;)
Try to keep your car locked, windows closed, and a steering wheel lock. You can't imagine the horrors that can happen to a nice car like that; at least you can't imagine it in LA.

Thx for the tip, but I lived at the corner of Crenshaw & 48th for 3 years, drove all over as a roofing contractor. I know a thing or two about L.A. bassin. :aok I only had one week, not much time to stop say hi, next time :frown:

Its cool, San Jose, Morgan Hill, and Gilroy, you'll find me. Don't worry. ;)

That is a 1972 Ford Gran Torino, probably a 351 Cleveland although possibly a 429 with the GT scoop.
I had 2 of the 72 Rancheros ;)
One of the all time favorite cars I've owned.
-
Looks like a 72 Gran Torino Sport. I'm going with 351C.
I'm not a fan of a lot of Torino's, but the 72 Sports are gorgeous.

The car came with a 302, we stroke it to a 347, detroit locker rear end, and a biffed up C4 trany. Car's HP not to crazy at 400 ish at the crank. Sounds great, fun to drive. I'll post a vid in a day or 2 for the engine music :pray when back home.
Posted that before, but that's how the car looked like when we picked her up from 15 years in the desert:

If you're coming to the South California part, good luck in seeing the mountains through all the smog.

And yet 30 miles further south in Orange County, you could leave your car unlocked, keys in the ignition and a big 'Steal Me' sign on it, and it'll still be there two weeks later. On the down side, the cops are so bored they'll ticket a 6 year old for skateboarding across the road.
