'70 Twister Special Torino - $59,000 + - 2003-04 Mach 1 Registry Owners Club

San Pedro Mach · 07-30-2005, 12:11 AM

What do you guys think? Is that a fair price (so far)? Makes you wonder what a Twister Mustang would fetch...

I've been watching this one,as well. Not that I can afford it. This kind of money would probably be a record for any Torino is it actually sells.

The only problem is you really need to document it and verify that its a true car.

Wow I had no idea they even made a Twister Torino. I'm still kicking myself for not buying a nice '85 TwisterII I saw a couple of years ago.

That's a cool car. I knew a guy in north carolina that owned a '70 twister Mach. It was a beautiful car.

Over $70K now and reserve still not met!

I can't believe this is 'real' money. As nice as it is it shouldn't be that high. I think he's just 'showing off'.

I agree...35,000 to 45,000 sounds like a more realistic range ! It's a shame the investors have gotten back in our "Hobby". They are inflating the prices of everything making it impossible for mid salaried enthusiest to even try getting into older muscle cars !! I wish they would put their money back into wallstreet and bring prices back down to earth where they belong !!

If you owned one, you wouldn't be saying that...............same as real estate.......feel lucky if you own and be glad you aren't on the outside looking in...........

If that's the price the market is demanding, so be it................I don't blame anyone AT ALL for getting as much as they can on something they OWN!
