- Last week we checked out the Ford Twister Mustangs, and tonight we're going to learn about the very rarely seen, 1970 Ford Twister Torino!
Only 90 Torino Twisters were ever made and this one is highly original! This is one of 30 that were equipped with a 4 speed.
In this video, Jim shares his knowledge of how the Twister Mustangs and Torino's came to be!!! It's an interesting story of how these came to be and this is an awesome example!!!
Let's take a look and learn more about these amazing cars!!! Be sure to check out the video on the Mustangs as well!!! - Auta a dopravní prostředky
I’m a former owner of a 4-speed Torino Twister. Current owner is giving it a complete restoration right now.
I love Twister story. I'm always surprised at the people who just don't seem to care that you a trying to conduct an interview and shoot a video. Great Job and video!!
I was there when these videos were shot. I would've never dreamed of intruding like some guy did here. Some people have zero situational awareness.
A walking text book. That’s awesome. ✌️😎👍
Dam, he is smart !!! Great Video!!!
My 71 Bench seat GT 4 speed 351 4V was option less, no disc brakes no plover brakes no power steering, had the Laser Stripe, I added hideaways and a 4.56 Trac lok Posi. Miss that car to this day
Yep 🌪 Twister 🌪 we’re few but True Ford guys were well aware of them but they weren’t easy to come across in 70,s unless you were rolling in the 💰just like how many young guys are buying 2022 Shelby’s today
I love you and miss your beautiful family and friends and I love you. 🎅 I lover you. ❤️ ❤😂🎉😢😮😅😊
Great job on these Mecum videos. Very interesting and informative. Looking forward to seeing this car cross the block at Kissimmee in a few days.
I am not from Kansas, so I have never even heard of these Twister Specials before. Very enlightening. Thank you.
I am from Kansas...have heard of Twister Specials before (or maybe I'm confusing them for Cyclone Mercurys), but I had no idea there was any relation. Cool little tidbit there. That they were mostly put together out of the KC (Missouri) plant, and that they took the "twister" idea from being in tornado alley.

Cool vid! I had read about the Torino Twister specials, but DIDN'T know about the Rancheros! Time to start paying attention in the Kansas area.
Back in the late 80s, there was a Red Twister Torino running around Hutchinson.
A buddy of mine has an exact one that’s fully restored and he said his Marti report says it’s 1 of 90 Torino twister special cobras. However, Jim in the video says there were 88 Torinos and 2 Rancheros. Is the Marti report wrong and should it say 1 of 88 Torinos produced, or does the Marti report include Rancheros as well?
The numbers for all the twisters fall between 0A38J131596 and 0A38J134632, not consecutively.
From Twister site.
Little bit of work at some long tube headers it would have been a low 11 second
Not trying to start a argument but the Marti report on my 1970 Torino SCJ shows the paint color as Calypso Coral not the Vermillion Orange mentioned in the vid
Painted on performance. Should have been solid lifters in a 3/4 lol
I have always thought Torinos are under appreciated. Though Ford probably didn't help themselves out at the time marketing them to the right demographics. They probably got in their own way of selling more.
Is this car for sale? If so, can anyone please point me in the right direction?

"VERMILLION RED" NOT ORANGE BUDDY. Vermillion is what my 71 is.
You know you got it bad when you can smell FORD through a video. Ford had a better idea.
This guy is terrible at interviewing his guest!! He ask the older gentleman a question but immediately wants to answer his own question.. and very visibly gets irritated with his guest for trying to answer his questions.
Summary:
ford marketing crap.
Basically a Decal package. Nothing more Nothing less.
