Looks like you have quite a project on hand. It is looking good so far. I love doing just what you are doing, I had a 71 Mustang that I had to take apart and R&R like you are doing to your Torino. I think the 69 torino is one of the unappreciated Torinos. Some say it was too big and looked awkward. Properly configure muscle wise they are a Torino to be reckoned with. Although I don't currently have any fords on the project list, I found a four speed in the back of my garage that belonged to a 71 or 72 Torino 428 CJ, it is one of the borg warner Top Loader style and has the dual bolt pattern ears. Anyway good luck with your project, hope to see more photos as you progress.
