hey guys in all your wisdom do you know where I can get my hands on some trim tag, motor & axel codes for a '72 Grand Torino with a 351 SCJ package...been on the net from one end to the other and am not hitting anything....much thnx for a link to a site. Thnx Bud.
Bud, Did Ford use the SCJ label on the 351? I thought only 428's and 9's got the SCJ. I found one place that says there was no 351 SCJ... only 351 BOSS/HO/CJ/4V/2V. You may be able to find some information in the Big Block Ford usenet newsgroup: alt.hi-po.big-block-ford-mercury
Bud, Here are some mid-size Ford sites: Fairlainiac: http://www.network54.com/Forum/191441 Woody's 62-71 Fairlane site: http://www.woodyg.com/fairlane/ Fairlane Club of America: http://www.fairlaneclubofamerica.com/ Someone there should be able to answer your questions!
No SCJ designation in '72 that I know of. We had a '72 Gran Torino 351 Cleveland 4bbl 4spd for about 2 years. No power robbing accessories on it :Brow: :3gears: :3gears: http://groups.msn.com/TheFordTorinoClub/general.msnw
Thnx for the help guys..in my desperate search the other night I forgot I posted over here to..its like they dont exist after '71...what I found is a '72 CJ 351 A/T A/C Silver with black guts car in primer complete with a bunch of NOS chrome piled in it...buried in a basement garage what do you guys think it would be worth apart?? and back together with fresh paint??? I may buy it to re-sell to help fund my current restorations...they eat hundo's like I have tree out back,lol. Thnx Bud.
What does the guy want for it all? There's a Torino Bulliten Board that has all kinds of cars and stuff for sale and "wanted" as well. http://www.liketelevision.com/web1/grantorino/wwwboard/
I joined two Torino boards looking for help...without insulting anyone..they did not want to talk much and the 4 sale part was dated with old stuff...makes me a little nervouse about pulling the trigger on it..as for what he is asking I dont want to appear rude but..somehow that never really works to tell all what you paid and what you want for it... even if the new buyer after me down right stole it..there always seems to be some question on I got sre#@#& thinking they overpaid....if you know what I mean. I will check out your link..Thnx Bud.
http://www.network54.com/Forum/198944?it=0 seems to be the cream of the crop, even recognized a few respondents I've dealt with in the past. Not to derail your quest for info, but ran across a 4spd '71 429CJ on Wagoner's site the other night while ck'ing out a '72 455HO LeMans Sport convert. The Torino has since sold Interesting to ck it out though. Will need to click on their inventory list & scan down about 20 cars... http://www.wagnersclassiccars.com/index.html 1971 Ford Torino 429 This is a very rare Torino 1 of 6! It is a numbers matching 429 Cobra Jet car equipped with a 4-speed transmission, 3.50 Traction-Lok, Hurst shifter, bench seat, heavy duty suspension and features only 64,000 actual miles. The car comes complete with an Elite Marti Report and the car runs excellent. Please call for more information. $16,500 :3gears: Roger
429 4spd... :3gears: :TU: you guys think the car I am talking about is worth about 3500 in primer running strong and the exterior chrome in boxes...????
