This old warrior has seen some might hard racing over the years. Decided this old Ford deserved new life with the help of SCC wheels, Slot.it gears, Sloting Plus bushings and PG Tires.


Yes, they fit well. No body sanding. Just sanded the inside of the tire to clear the chassis.

Runs great. Good to see it out on the track again :)

I might have to give my LeeRoy Yarbrough Torino a similar treatment.
Great paintwork on the wheels!

Nice looking Torino! Must be a thick coat of paint, I hardly see a scratch on it!

Thanks guys.
But...I did buff it out with some Johnsons paste wax pretty good. The clear coat is a tough one and it did buff out pretty well.
Now just to get it boogered up some more :)
Yes, it runs great. Hard not to when you slip in all the goodies we have out there these days :)
I'm no Cheater O'Connor, but it will hold it's own.
