Here we have another of our barn storage finds a 1970 Torino Cobra restoration project. This 429 Cobra Fastback is totally stock and powered with its original 429 factory Motor with D0VE heads. Ford offered 3 429 versions and this the Thunder Jet was the most economically offered version. This the street version high powered big block factory racer was equipped with heavy duty sway bar and of course a 4 barrel carb. You will find this with a Ford favorite Big Block C6 automatic transmission and drum brakes all the way around. You will find the 9 inch rear driveshaft & suspension undisturbed so totally stock. Just 1 of the 200+ projects starting at 1500 you can find at a deal at Mustang Masters.
This is a real deal 429 car with a N code designation is loaded with Automatic transmission as well as the rare option of A/C and needed Power steering all make this a joy to drive. Ford built with these with the extra strong big sway bar and a 9 Inch 3.00 Rear End and GT Suspension. Factory equipped with the sure stopping 11 inch drum Brakes. Also stock are a set of optional simulated mag wheel hub caps and AM radio to make this a truly stock all the classic.
So the body needs attention and the previous owner has due to health problems abandon his dream. His attention to detail drove him to order panels to eliminate rust thats not even there. The auction comes with an original rust free front torque box, a complete 1 piece Floor and toe area, Also both complete 1/4 panels ( 800 each) as well as wheel housings and trunk drops. In our opinion his car does not need all the panels but the are included. The doors fenders and hood need help & can be attended to by some excess parts we have so ask for those and any other rust questions
This desirable classic is in need of a complete rebuild. Some miscellaneous rust from sitting has caused it to need body repair so it definitely would a plus for the new owner to have bodywork skills. Expect some simple attention in this mechanical rebuild as it is free spinning and since it’s all there it could easily run. It is offered stock with its original large drive shaft which connects to the heavy duty 9-inch stock rear again all of it stock undisturbed !!!.

You’ll find the interior is pretty much all there with the original everything which is in fair condition although it too will need attention or replacement to be brought back to life for the customer who wants to start cheap and save.
This is a whole car pretty much untouched except by the novice owner who removed a few things we returned to the original spot on the car. Stock as it is it will need a complete build which is aided by the originality. Although all is together it is in need of skilled craftsmen’s attention. Please understand it is sold as is and will not be able to be returned. If you have any questions we will be glad to discuss this car in detail but be assured the value will certainly be well worth it in the end as this is a well optioned car. Easy to find just look for Mustang Masters we have been around since 1981 and are available for parts cars or even council just ask thanks Freddy
