NASCAR TORINOS

What year are you referring to?

I have an article on the Bud Moore cars from '72, if that helps.

Send me an email if you need a copy.

Short story: The '72-up Torinos were built on a chassis fabricated from stock Torino side rails, but with custom f/r kickups to mount the H-M Galaxie front steer components and rear 9" on the customary Chevy Truck trailing arms.

Bodies were fabricated from parts delivered directly from Atlanta, or in some cases, bodies in white or wrecks. The former were for the skilled fabricators in Charlotte, who could tweak hell out of them; the latter for the bucks-down little guys who had yet to be priced out of GN racing.

Engines ran the gamut, from the Boss with the restrictor plate to the 351C.

HTH!
