Help on parts

Whassup people well have inharited my mom's 73 Gran Torino Sport its brown w/ black int. Also it has the laser strip on the side, original paint & inter. Now my dad is giving it to me. Any ware to go for parts. I know the car has never been crashed but there is rust damage.[img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_confused.gif[/img]

You asked a very wide open question. What type of parts are you looking for - engine or body? Based upon your rust comment you may be referring to body parts. Either way check into Dearborn Classics. They have a good website and catalog with a variety of parts. I am completely restoring my 1972 Sport and have purchased a lot from them. I will tell you some body parts are hard to find. For stock engine parts I have has success with NAPA. Good luck and do not hesitate to ask more specific questions. People on this forum and the all ford tech forum are very helpful.

Where do you live bud?

Motor mounts for what engine &amp; car combination? If it is a 460 or 429 in a 72 - 76 Torino, I got mine off ebay (they were off a Ranchero). My understanding is that you can use the mounts from any 72 &amp; up Torino, Montego, Ranchero, T-bird or Mark that had a 429 or 460.

I believe Crites has a replacement part that assumes you have the frame side mounts from a small block and they sell you block side mounts that will bolt to them. http://www.critesrestoration.com/
