@Rvess9925 – Is the car ready for a road trip? If I win bid I would want to drive from TX to Virginia? Thanks ...
I regularly drive the car 100 or so miles at a time without any issues. I have not done a long road trip with the car. It’s 1500 miles or so from Dripping Springs to Virginia. You might want to brake up the drive in 300 to 500 or so miles. It’s a 52 year old car …

Please don't bad mouth your wife for a banged-up molding or you're liable to end up sleeping with the quarter panel.
Is the air conditioning freon R-12 or converted to R-134A?

Folk - I am the seller. Let me share with you why I am selling this car. I am located in Dripping Springs, TX. Its the wedding capital of Texas. I have a company called ATX Classic Cars and I rent out cars for photoshoots, wedding getaways and events. I have 17 or so cars and the Torino doesn't get rented out very often. I am selling this car to turn it in to cash to buy a car that my customer will end up renting. My customer is a 25 to 40 year old female and they don't know what the car is. They rent out my big classic caddy convertibles, Rolls Royces etc. When I got this car my mechanic and I went through it. We addressed the cooling with a new radiator and water pump. We resealed up the car - there are no drips. The car has AC and heat that work. Top goes up and down without issues. I bought new tires less than a year ago and the tires have less that 1,000 miles on them. There is a small tear in the back of the driver seat about the size of a quarter. Its a good straight car. It has been repainted and the paint job is a 8 out of 10 - there are some nicks. My wife banged up the side molding on the driver side quarter panel. I have not been able to find a replacement part. I am trying to load videos but I am having issues - can anyone help me ? Let me know if I can answer any more questions for you Thank you
I couldn't tell what kind of shape the top is in and if it goes up and down easy. Thanks 5803310219 OK. Where is Dripping Springs, TX. I couldn't find it on the map.
BID: $9,500
