With its sleek SportsRoof shape, the 1970 Ford Torino Cobra is one of those machines that looks like it’s “moving out” even when it’s standing still. This no-frills Cobra packs a mighty punch in the form of a 370-horse 429 Cobra Jet Ram-Air V-8 that delivers top-shelf performance on the street or at the drag strip.

The Ford Torino is an automobile that was produced by Ford for the North American market between 1968 and 1976. It was a competitor in the intermediate market segment and essentially a twin to the Mercury Montego line. Just as the Ford LTD had been the upscale version of the Ford Galaxie, the Torino was initially an upscale variation of the intermediate-sized Ford Fairlane. In the 1968 and 1969 model years, the intermediate Ford line consisted of lower-trim Fairlanes and its subseries, the upper-trim Torino models. In 1970, Torino became the primary name for Ford’s intermediate, and the Fairlane was now a subseries of the Torino. In 1971, the Fairlane name was dropped altogether, and all Ford intermediates were called Torino. Most Torinos were conventional cars, and generally the most popular models were the four-door sedans and two-door hardtops. However, Ford produced some high-performance “muscle car“ versions of the Torino by fitting them with large powerful engines, such as the 428 cu in (7.0 L) and 429 cu in (7.0 L) “Cobra-Jet“ engines. Ford also chose the Torino as the base for its NASCAR entrants, and it has a successful racing heritage. 1970 Ford Torino Cobra Product number: 14534 Scale:1:25 Age:12 Number of parts:128 Length:219 mm Width:76 mm Height:60 mm The Torino Cobra remained the top performance model, but was a lower level of trim than the Torino GT. The Cobra was only available as a SportsRoof, and came standard with a 4-speed close ratio transmission, Hurst shifter, competition suspension, flat black hood and grille, 7-inch-wide wheels, F70-14 tires with raised white letters, twist style exposed hood latches and “Cobra“ emblems.[15][14] New options included 15 in (380 mm) Magnum 500 wheels with F60-15 tires and flat black “Sport Slats“ for the rear window (both also available on the Torino GT). Performance was strong even though the Torino was heavier for 1970. Motor Trend tested a 1970 Torino Cobra equipped with the Ram Air 370 hp (276 kW), 429 CJ, C-6 automatic and rear axle, and it went from 0 – 60 mph (97 km/h) in 6.0 seconds while taking 14.5 seconds at 100 mph (161 km/h) to go through the quarter-mile. Motor Trend wrote “The weight obviously helped traction, as it was fairly easy to accelerate away from a standing start with only a modicum of wheelspin.“ Motor Trend also tested a 1970 Cobra with a 429 SCJ, 4-speed and gears, and resulted in a 0 – 60 mph (97 km/h) time, with a quarter-mile at 101.0 mph (162.5 km/h).[16] Super Stock and Drag Illustrated bested that time, in their test of a Torino Cobra equipped with the 375 hp (280 kW), 429 SCJ, C-6 automatic, and rear gears. They were able to run the quarter-mile in seconds at mph ( km/h), however, this was after the carburetor had been modified (improved power valve, larger primary and secondary jets). Super Stock and Drag Illustrated fitted a pair of slicks to the same Torino and ran a seconds at mph ( km/h).
