YACT: I didn't give up and I found the car!

Update:
While I was searching the auto ads this week looking for a 70-71 Torino GT I think I found the car. A gentleman has a 70 GT convertible for sale in PA and is asking a little less than $4000. It?s clean and only 41K miles, but it has some minor dent and is starting to rust in the typical location for a northern car.

I?m calling the guy tonight to make an offer and get the VIN. I?ll post some pictures in a few minutes.

Thanks for all the support, especially Farmgirl.

It's a 351C 2v, but I have the right parts to make it a 4v. It also has the C4 transmission which is very rare to find for a 351C, most of the them had a FMX or C6 by 1970.
 
I had always read that the 2v heads were better for the street. The 4v heads ports were too big to have good low rpm breathing.

Edelbrock used to make a 4v manifold to fit on 2v heads.
man, I learned how to work on cars with my 71 cougar XR-7 with the 351c 2v motor. Best car I ever owned.

You read right and I have several 2v & 4v manifolds to choose from to covert it to a four barrel engine.
