Harry's Thoughts

This is a blast to drive! With incredible power, this is a rare original Cobra with the optional N-Code engine!

THE ESSENTIALS

This 1970 Ford Torino Cobra was acquired by its current owner in 2010, and it has since been refurbished and modified. The Grabber Blue exterior was repainted in 2018, while the N-code 429 Thunder Jet V8 was rebuilt and upgraded in 2010. The rear end was overhauled in 2020 with 2.73 gears, and the power steering pump was replaced in 2024. The car also has front disc brakes, 17″ Halbrand-style wheels, a Hurst shifter, and extra gauges.

The Grabber Blue exterior was repainted c. 2018, and it has a shaker hood with a Cobra Jet-logo scoop and hood pins as well as rear window louvers and a front spoiler. Halibrand-style 17″ wheels have been added along with Michelin tires. The power steering pump was replaced in 2024, and the car has power-assisted front discs. The selling dealer notes front-end wander at speed.

The interior was also redone, and the black upholstery is complemented by color-coordinated carpeting. A fire extinguisher is mounted ahead of the Hurst shifter.  The three-spoke steering wheel fronts a 120-mph speedometer, a horizontal tachometer, a coolant-temperature gauge, and a fuel-level gauge. A Sunpro tachometer is mounted on the column, and a trio of auxiliary gauges are mounted under the dashboard. The current owner has added ~1,300 of the ~19k miles indicated, though total chassis mileage is unknown.

The car was ordered with an N-code 429 Thunder Jet V8. A “Stage 1” engine rebuild was performed by JBA Performance Center in 2010. Probe pistons were installed along with roller rockers, hardened pushrods, a Lunati camshaft, refreshed heads, an Edelbrock intake manifold and water pump, and a Holley 750cfm carburetor. Cobra Jet exhaust manifolds were also installed and the exhaust system was modified. In preparation for the sale the idle was adjusted and fluids were changed.

The car has a four-speed manual transmission, and the rear end was overhauled in 2020 with 2.73 gears.
