American Muscle - 1969 Ford Fairlane/Torino Cobra
This time autoreview will review specs, interior, and engine that is very powerful car that is American Muscle - 1969 Ford Fairlane/Torino Cobra as we all know american muscle car is a legendary car with immense power but with a classic design and elegant look of a very powerful zoom. Next we consider the specifications, interior, and engine of the American Muscle - 1969 Ford Fairlane/Torino Cobra
Officially, these are known simply as Cobras, according to period Ford advertising and sales brochures, and more importantly, the dealer winder-sticker. Really though, these are Fairlanes, as the Torino designation was an option package for the Fairlane body-code and was not yet a separate model line in 1969. Sometimes also referred to as the Torino GT or Fairlane Cobra, this naming convention generates some debate in collector circles. This line featured two body styles: the hardtop (aka “formal roof”) and the much more common “sports roof” fastback.
The Cobra performance package included as standard the 335 hp 428 Cobra Jet V-8 with a Holly 4bbl. Optional Ram Air didn’t increase horsepower, but it boosted the performance peak to 5,600 rpm. Also included was a locking rear differential, which was exclusive to Ford. Quarter mile times were typically in the 14.5 second range. Exact production figures are difficult to come by, but it is estimated that about 14,000 Cobras were sold in 1969, with the vast majority of them being the fastback version. Naturally, I prefer the rare hardtop (pictured here), which number about 3,000.
