Ford Torino commercial

[greenjeansmjr]

I always like this year and bodystyle...not as heavy as it looks, and with the FE 428 was pretty fast. Were these available with a 429/460? I drove a 1971 wagon with the base 302 Windsor...it was surprisingly fast 0-50mph in city driving! The Fords of this era seemed of lighter weight, more nimble, and fuel efficient. Sure hated those sqeaky upper control arm bushings, though.

[lazzer408]

Extra Control? Like when you have to take a hand off the steering wheel to shift? :D

[gunny426plymouth]

hey this is fuckin annoying.......

[rogerbahakel]

i like the 70-71 torino's the best but i did own a '73 model.

[TheLizardKing1967]

Sorry, but FORD did not have a better idea with this car. FACT.

[Joeyland]

ads that actually show the car, amazing

[miamad]

the 71 was a pile of shit.

[theARMONexchange]

AHHHH SIEZURE

[mihailolord]

lol a middle car xD

[Rare92Mustang]

hahah middle size car that weighs 8,000 pounds.

[machone7I]

good add, but i wouldnt be surprised if it caused epileptic attacks. its true that the technology back then was superior to many european cars, wish those times could come back.

[icrails]

behemoth and tank ? You should have seen the full sized car sback then but all of them were works art not cookie cutter crap of today

[yurifiero]

lol a midsize car... this thing is a tank

[porsche911sbs]

scary thing is, this behemoth only had two disc brakes. nowadays, even most compacts come with four!

[machone7I]

@porsche911sbs well, the 911 was known for being very dangerous with only 110hp in '71. also bad quality was known in those 911s.

[porsche911sbs]

@machone7I firstly, I must say the car I drive is a Ford Focus with only two disc brakes. secondly, what did my comment have to do with Porsches? 911s were only dangerous as a result of living in America and risking getting in an accident with all the gigantic vehicles that drive on our roads. otherwise, with their superior handling and braking they held more potential in accident prevention than just about any other car at the time. and the last sentence is dubious to say the least.

[machone7I]

@porsche911sbs in '71 they didnt have the superior handling they have today. its like if you compare a '63 porsche 356 with a '63 ford fairlane 427. being the 356 a sports beetle.

[70CobraJet429]

@porsche911sbs HaHa... I have a 70 Torino Cobra! Two disc brakes? Nope. Non-power drums on all four corners!! These cars were made to go, not stop.

[VladBlok28]

EVEN a heated rear window!

[DunnMotorsports]

cheap, flimsy, and economy class are you kidding?

[ledrocker123]

good thing im not epileptic

[sk8r1446]

now he has a 48 willys, which is still cool

[sk8r1446]

yo, my dad had a 72 it was friggin sweet!!

[Rtrt67]

My dad had a good looking red 69 w/ white racing stripe. This 71 model is FUGLY.

[MrITALIANGUY72]

wheres the gps and the satalite radio lmao

[zukomatico]

pretyy car but was one bad car

[67nairb]

My father had a Ford Torino in the Seventies.

[nakamichiguy]

when I was growing up Torinos were kind of a joke, but these early models looked really sweet! I'd love to drive a minty one with the Hurst manual. Those can't be too common anymore, eh?

[beammark]

i know what you mean about torinos kinda being granny cars in the 70's but now they are sweet ... my uncle used to have a 71 ranchero and people made fun of him for it and now its a classic muscle car

[The6000Sabre]

I think that was because Ford products (and AMC products) ot the era were considered "cheap", "flimsy" or "economy class" cars compared to the more "robust", "aggressive" and "luxurious" image projected by GM and Chrysler products of the day.

Strangely, today now that GM is owned by the government and Chrysler is owned by Fiat of Italy, It is Ford and it's vintage cars that are being revered more now than ever. Sort of a automotive Cinderella story, if you will.

[fido139]

As a Ford man most of my life, I never found anything cheap and flimsy about them back then, except for the for Falcons, but even then, after owning three of them decided they were great cars after all.

[The6000Sabre]

The only thing flimsy I would say on Fords were the front suspension on their old unibody cars: Falcon; Mustang; Maverick;

Fairlane/ Torino before 1973.

And the Pinto was a bomb. But then so was the Chevy Vega.

[legendary351]

TORINO FTW!!

[goofballez]

had a 72 gold fastback,with crager SS rims...

lol,i was the man...almost.

[harley1450000]

love those green torinas

[Sean1086]

Gran Torino....if it's good enough for Clint Eastwood, it's good enough for me!

[mfreeman7821]

sick, great commercial

[jammer96]

My mom had a 71 Torino GT for her 1st car. It was yellow with white leather interior, 351 Cleveland. Great car until the idiot she sold it to blew up the motor when he forgot to put oil it!

[slay63]

Rear window defroster was a option that only very few Torino's had..We had a 70 Torino brougham when I was groing up, it didnt have rear window defrost but it was a great looking car.

[beryce420]

my pusssy is wet s

[rambocom44]

My first car 1970 torino white with black top 351 c got my first piece of ass here and makes my cock so hard too

[scomule2]

ford did a good job putting this one together...both the ad & the car! NICE!

[ejohn97]

Great commercial! It brings back a lot of good memories.

[zorda22]

Yeah!!! I have a 1971 Torino-500 fastback..

Power!! Nice 302 engine..people always stop to look at it when we go to car shows here in Maine! So Nice to see the commercial!

[Nonamesareleft99]

i have a 1976 ford torino

[surveillance89101]

Such a GROOVY ad!!

[bongomanfromdalou]

The dude drivin' it checked off the right boxes on the option list! The rear window defroster, 4-speed, electric windows and buckets were optional...

My nephew had a '71 Torino in Grabber Yellow which was a really dependable car (and earned the nickname "Yellow Submarine" after it survived an accidental dunk into floodwaters)!

Better than the barges that followed from '72 to '76!

[macemmett]

My 71 351C still rocks. I love the electric light in the commercial. Torinos rule!

[laron214]

not heated rear windows. ford used to be ahead of its time.

[pbmax]

It reminds me of hairy pussy, big natural breasts, and actually being able to bang a chick in the back seat. Thanks for the memories.

[DoriFord]

muhaha, great comment! )

[TheFIRSTFatJohn]

@pbmax OMG, I couldn't have said it better myself! Don't you miss a big, hairy snatch? I know I do! And, I miss a car that will keep you safe no matter what hits you, With opera windows and thickly padded landau tops with french-seam rear windows that keep the police (or anyone else) from knowing what you're doing in that back seat with that sexy bitch with the fat titties and hairy pussy! Hey, at least they still make big vans, right?

[harley1450000]

@pbmax lol can't beat the 70's bush

[TheLizardKing1967]

@pbmax. Makes me think you are addicted to porn. LOL

[versailles7]

@pbmax I couldn't agree with you more on the bush thing. A fluffy kitty beats a bald one any day for me! It makes a woman look like a woman instead of like a pre-pubescent girl. And @miamad, '71 was the last year for the convertible, the 4-dr hardtop, concealed headlights, and the CJ engine. If you don't like the '71, then you just don't like Torinos, period!

[CALiBOiAKArezz]

@pbmax i cant think of a better way to put it...good one brothaa

[frankd1965]

This commercial aired during the TV show "The FBI" Quinn Martin Productions was VERY BIG on Ford products being a product tie-in and corporate sponsor.

[riidinghard]

This car ruled especially with a 351C.

[mieses2pieces]

It still does!! Mine sure does!!
