Car sits just right these things were low. Look how high the front wheel openings were cut!

Oh yeah !!!! There ya go looks sick!!!!

This car was a USAC stock car. They had looser rules than NASCAR did. The front spoiler alone would have disqualified it from nascar.

Butchs 71 Charger Salvinos kit with my own grilles windshield and exhaust pipes. Powerslide decals.

It’s looking real good so far.

Wow Mark you are a glutton for punishment. Are you making a IROC car?

I’ll tell you what. I wouldn’t trade modern body tooling for Johans 1960s tooling if my life depended on it. Johans engraving was far superior to most anything offered today.

That’s I think the most accurate. You know just like me when you get it all done. A picture will show up proving how wrong it is. Happens to me all the time.

Exactly if you look at the original picture it looks like the Fastback to me. This is what has kept me from finishing this car. I started it with your 73 body but I have too many unanswered questions. I’ve got requests for more pictures on Facebook but it’s probably futile at best.

Here’s a formal roof for comparison. The roof to quarter transition is almost flat compared to the others.

The yellow car has the smaller window.

Yes it does but look through the car it looks to have the long sail panel on the drivers side. Malibu had a small window like this in 74. Could this be a skinned Malibu??? There’s some weird about this car. Compare these pictures with the race car. In my opinion for what it’s worth the roof to quarter transition looks more like the Fastback. I have been wrong before however.

Larry I wish I’d seen this before stop!!!!! This car does not have a formal roof. I have studied this picture for hours. Look very closely through the door window . You won’t see the split in the center of the formal roof glass. Plus if you look closely where the quarter meets the roof it comes together as a Fastback would. I truly think this car is a 74 Century body with a 73 Regal front bumper and nose on it.

Johan 67 Eldorado in Tropic Green Firemist. Box stock aside from lowering the frt suspension so it doesn’t sit nose in the air.

Doug the next time you want to do a Torino like this put it on a stretched 90s AMT Tbird chassis sits way better and is more accurate too. I can also walk you through the mods if you’re interested.

Look up Rayskits online I believe that was his site

There’s a guy in the Netherlands that does lazer stripes and all the other decals for a 72 Torino. I have to dig up his name for you.

No mine are pretty simple compared to most on the tables there.

I agree Tom

Outside picture some foil on now

Got a good deal on this a while back. It’s time to do it. This will be close to box stock with some simple improvements. Starting with lowering the front end so it’s not aiming for the sky. I will move the distributor to the front of the engine where it belongs and make some other corrections. Keeping it pretty simple.

Beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No I left it basically as a got it. It was a decent build to begin with aside from the paint job.

This is a real nice build. The headlights are great Way to go.

Steven Zimmerman made them. He’s on Facebook
