 | The Torino was produced by Ford for the North American market between 1968 and 1976. In 1969, Ford’s R-code Ram Air 428/335 HP Cobra Jet big-block found a new home within the engine compartment of the Torino Cobra. 4-speed manual transmission. 3.50 rear axle. Power brakes. Build sheets. Marti Report. Candy Apple Red with Black bench seat interior. |
| Mandatory performance equipment included 4-speed transmission, 9-inch rear end, Competition Suspension, cooling package, and styled steel wheels. Ford produced 14,885 Torino Cobras for 1969. Of those, 11,099 were fastbacks. |  |
 | The Torino Cobra was a new entry into the budget supercar category to compete against Plymouth Road Runners and Super Sport Chevelles. |  |
 | 750 Torino Talladegas were made, all in 1969. They were built exclusively for homologation in NASCAR racing. Cosmetic changes were boosted with additional oil coolers for engine and power steering, a heavy-duty transmission and upgraded differential. |
 | An open-air carport in Myrtle Beach isn’t the ideal place to store a muscle car for 44 years, but that’s exactly where a single-owner 1969 Ford Torino Cobra has been sitting all this time. Hagerty suggests a fully restored example is worth upwards of $85,000. |  |
