Gateway Classic Cars of San Antonio/Austin is excited to present this 1973 Ford Gran Torino, finished in eye-catching Competition Yellow with aggressive black racing stripes. Its long, sleek body lines capture the essence of early '70s performance, while 14-inch Mustang wheels and a custom dual snorkel intake built into the headlights give it a unique, performance-inspired edge you won't see at every car show. Under the hood sits the legendary 351 Cleveland V8, one of Ford's most respected high-performance engines of the era. Known for its strong top-end power and distinctive sound, it's paired here with a smooth FMX 3-speed automatic transmission for easy cruising. An Edelbrock carburetor and intake help wake things up, while dual exhaust with glasspack-style mufflers delivers that deep, unmistakable muscle car rumble. Inside, the Ginger vinyl interior brings classic '70s vibes, complete with a comfortable bench seat and floor-mounted shifter. Upgrades like a Lokar shifter, aftermarket tach, and Sony AM/FM/CD/Aux stereo blend vintage style with modern convenience. Power steering and front disc brakes make it a confident cruiser. The Gran Torino gained pop culture fame through shows like Starsky & Hutch, cementing its place as one of Ford's most recognizable muscle-era machines. Today, clean examples are becoming harder to find, especially with tasteful upgrades like this one. With its standout color, proven V8 performance, and unmistakable presence, this Torino isn't just a car, it's a rolling piece of American attitude. Fire it up, hit the road, and enjoy the rumble of true Ford muscle.
