hold it. Just a minute.... who ever heard of the Torino Type N/Ws? I sure didn't until now! The Torino N/W tried to imitate the “California Special” Mustang

Before the new generation Torino came out in 1970, the Ford Dealers Association in Oregon got together with an idea to promote the new body style. The special Torino would be unique to the Northwest, and 601 were to be produced, but only 395 were made

Available in three colors, this one is Pacific Blue with a black hood, dual chrome hood-lock pins, dual racing mirrors, rocker panel racing stripes and argent-styled wheels.

Of the 395 Type N/W models made, only five are 429s and only one is a 429 Cobra Jet.

this one sold for 44k in 2018 at Barrett Jackson Scottsdale https://www.barrett-jackson.com/Events/Event/Details/1970-FORD-TORINO-NW-EDITION-215933

When the Oregon Ford Dealers Association saw the new Torino, they got excited and decided to repeat the “California Special” magic that had worked so well for the Mustang. With that, the Torino Type NorthWest (N/W) was born.

Every Type N/W came with matte black hood and locking pins, body-color sports mirrors, argent-styled road wheels with trim rings, Wide Oval tires, and rocker panel graphics with “Type N/W” on the rear quarter panel. It was a package car to some degree. Only three colors were offered: Pacific Blue, Washington Green and Oregon Orange. These were Grabber colors with special names.
