    This Torino looks to be in mint condition, judging from the exterior/interior.

    For sale in The Mitten of Michigan.:)

    I would say that, if the seller isn't heartbroken at having to sell this car, he's not human. It's beautiful, and it just screams the '70s.

    Long time since we have seen a 1972-76 Gran Torino Squire that sharp.

    It has the Squire Brougham option, too. Split bench front seats, upgraded upholstery and other trim, clock, hood ornament. Looks like it has at least one rear seat speaker, but no stereo. I can't pin down the color of this car. Every picture seems to be a slightly different shade.

    We had a '76 GT Squire/Brougham years ago. Silver with blue interior. Very comfortable, smooth riding car, but succumbed to terminal frame rot. 351M was adequate but not spectacular. My '76 Montego Villager and '75 GTS (non-Brougham) are much happier with their 400s.

    For $8500 I would want NO RUST, not "minimal rust'.

    I see what you mean, it is some kind of tan or beige color. That pinkish hue is some kind of reflection

    Yes, it does have the Brougham option, too.

    What a nice wagon!

    Yes it appears to be Ford 6U tan. We used to call it dirty bandaid tan, but that particular color did seem to have a pinkish hue to it. It does have two rear speakers, but not the in the front door speakers. So I think just the dash speaker and the two rear speakers. Probably an ok sound by ‘70’s standards.
