When I was having the troubles with the first set of pistons in the Boss, and was
having the block honed for a ring job at the (selling) dealer, there was a '70
Torino Cobra convertible on the showroom floor (the one with the 'laser' stripe from
the front fender down the body to behind the door). Yellow with black trim. I'm
almost positive it had a 429 4V engine in it, with a C-6.
If it had had a 4 speed, I'da traded the Boss in on it right then, with its pistons
in my hand.
Another beautiful car. I sure did like those '69 and '70 Torinos.
