Ford Torino

The Torino was Ford's intermediate sized car of the late 1960s and early 1970s, introduced in 1968 as an upscale series of the Fairlane line, named for the Italian city of Turin, and promoted to the main intermediate nameplate in 1970. Its Mercury twin was the Montego. It spanned the Cobra muscle car, the Gran Torino of the Starsky and Hutch television show and the big coke bottle bodied cars of 1972 to 1976, and was produced for North America until 1976. This site gives every generation and every model year its own page, in 3 generations: the first generation (1968 to 1969); the second generation (1970 to 1971); the third generation (1972 to 1976).
