428ci Cobra Jet V8 Only 750 Talladegas Built - Rare Collector Model
STK 3887 1969 Ford Torino Talladega
The 1969 Ford Torino Talladega is a legendary American muscle car that was specifically designed for NASCAR racing. Named after the Talladega Superspeedway in Alabama, this limited-production vehicle was built on the Torino Cobra Sportroof chassis. An aerodynamic body, a 6” longer nose, flush-mounted grille and redesigned rocker panels helped improve the overall performance of the Torino Talladega in competition. In order to fulfill NASCAR's racing requirement for street-legal production, Ford needed to deliver a limited number of Torino Talladega models for sale to the public. Just over 750 street-legal models (including proto-types) were said to have been manufactured in 1969, but only in three colors - Royal Maroon, Presidential Blue and Wimbledon White. Of those, 258 were Royal Maroon. Today these street-legal Torino Talladegas are highly sought-after collector items. (From the viewpoint of a Collector, we currently have for purchase one Talladega in each of the three colors, a rare 'matched set' if you will.)
This 1969 Torino Talladega is a rare, carefully restored example of a serious Ford performance machine from the '60s. The exterior was reshot in original Royal Maroon. Accents include a matte black hood and Torino GT Argent wheels w/caps-rings that mount Kelly radial tires. The black Broadcloth/Vinyl interior is also in outstanding condition. The Talladega was factory equipped with the 428ci Cobra Jet V8 engine, known for its impressive performance and reliability. The street-legal engine featured cast-iron block/heads along with a forged steel crankshaft and connecting rods. It incorporated a dual-plane intake manifold, high-lift camshaft and larger valves. The Cobra Jet was also equipped with a clutch fan and oil-cooler. With a compression ratio of 10.6:1, the factory Cobra Jet was very conservatively rated at 335 horsepower and 440lb/ft of torque. Based on available data, this 428 has been built for additional performance. It is now equipped with Edelbrock aluminum heads, Edelbrock Performer intake and Holley dual-feed carburetor. There are also receipts for the internal machine work performed. Other factory drivetrain enhancements of the Talladega included a heavy-duty C-6 Cruise-O-Matic transmission and 9” nodular differential w/3.25:1 gearing. The chassis is equipped with power steering, power disc/drum brakes w/dual master, HD suspension components and staggered shocks. This Talladega is a valuable piece of American automotive history and its legacy lives on as a symbol of a bygone era of motorsport excellence. ALL VEHICLES SOLD “AS IS”.
