| The 1970 Torino is unlike any previous
intermediate-class entry because it is new clear through. Overall length
has been increased by five inches to 206.2 inches and the wheelbase has
been increased by one inch to 117 inches.
There are 13 great Torinos to choose from, including the luxurious new
Torino Brougham series, the sporty Torinos - GT and Cobra - and the
Fairlane 500. Brougham 2- and 4-door hardtops and the versatile Torino
Squire Wagons offer outstanding features like the three-way locking
steering column, Uni-Lock Safety Harness and ventless side windows on
two-door hardtops.
Torino lists more than 50 comfort-convenience options, including power
disc brakes, power steering, power windows, and power front bench seat,
SelectAire integral all-season air conditioning, intermittent windshield
wipers, outside color-keyed dual racing mirros, and high-back bucket
seats. |
| Engine choices begin with the
155-horsepower, 250-cubic inch Six and extend to the 370-horsepower,
429-cubic inch Cobra Jet (Ram Air). The 250-cid Six engine is standard for
all models except Torino Brougham, Torino GT and Torino Cobra. The 302 V-8
engine is standard on Torino GT and Torino Brougham models, while the
Torino Cobra comes equipped with a new 429 4V V-8 engine. Transmissions
are a three-speed manual, four-speed manual with Hurst shifter, and
SelectShift Cruise-O-Matic. |
