you should have a heck of a time buying and finding restoration parts for it.

and rocker channels, torque boxes, trunk floor, rear apron... look for hidden rust like the same years mustangs do a lot...

I was conceived in one..........................maybe.
My dad had a '70 Torino GT after H.S. that was yellow/black with a 351C/Toploader.
Pretty cool old cars.
Old muscle cars probably are a slightly better investment than the Fox body but that may be debatable.
If its not a rusted out pile and you like it, go for it.

Ya' unless you've dove into a rebuild like this before, resto parts will add up in a hurry. You really can't find these in junkyards anymore either. Cool car though, NEVER seen one cruising down the road.
