Has anyone ever seen tan, cloth interior in a Torino? Looks kind of neat. Also, look at the clutch and brake pedals. He says the bushings are shot, I think the whole pedal assembly is shot. I have never seen pedals so crooked.

Looks like a nice package, though

according to my fairlane book I couldn't fine tan for the interior. May be called something else and one of the questions in the listing already addressed the 4V motor in a 2V Y code.
Buckets, console, tach , all together ,make it a possible good deal. Would have to see the clutch pedal set up closer though to see what the problem is. JMO Warren.

The Y is a 2V car, bet it had a 3 speed in if it was originally a manual

The pedal bracket is broken. You can weld it up, but $9K. I don't think so.

The cool lookin' velour seating was all the rage in the 80's. Interior was some white parchment vinyl color. Pretty cool car. Pedals are broken right loose - you should make it home and remove the whole assembly. Nothing a welder and some parts couldn't fix.

Ive seen a gold on gold 68 with cloth, actually gets dirty easy

and kind of feels grand-ma ish. There was a nice sedan around here i really wanted, but it was a 302 car and the interior was not striking in person. He wanted 8K, not sure what he sold it for... he even tried to ebay it and it never went over 4.5K...
