My best friend in high school had one of these , his $500 fastback 71 Torino had the 351 C engine, Shaker scoop, factory "ribbon tach" in the dash, and the louvers on the rear window, and when the engine went out, we went to a local junkyard searching for another 351 Cleveland , the junkyard had one , just pulled from a Mustang, with the factory 4 barrel carb and manifold and heads,
ReplyDeletehe wrecked it a few months later in 1982, and it got parked behind the barn at his parents farm. and he purchased a 73 Trans Am for $1,200 to drive.
its still sitting today, behind the barn at his parents farm, with the hood off, the oil pan was pushed off the bottom , bolts ripped thru the pan, I assume from freezing water. we ran the part numbers and its a Boss 351, a very rare engine.
Dang! That must have been a blast to get a ride in! Well worth the time, effort, and cost of getting running again!
