So I’m going to warp up the articles on the Fords on 4th Ave car show and getting ready for live tweets from Good Guys show in Scottsdale, Az tomorrow.
In a previous post I mentioned the lack of Mercury’s (other than Cougars) at the show, there were only a couple Thunderbirds and sadly only one Torino. I loveĀ the Torino! I should have kept my 1974 GS with Cobra Jet engine!
So as a warp up I thought I’d share my (non-Mustang) favorites from the show.
First up is the one and only Ford Torino.

Very Nice 1973 Torino. Love the body style! This one didn’t have any of the badge and I couldn’t tell if it was a Grand Torino. It appeared to have a 351 engine.

Can’t say I like the grill.

Nicely done and mostly stock!!!
Here is the oldest Ford in the show:
![]() 1915 Ford Model T.
|
![]() Doodlebug – defined as vehicle used for work around the farm. My Grandfather had one (1930’s Ford) and we called it the Doodlebug. |

This Falcon is amazing!! Nice V8 (351 I believe).

Yes I know it’s a wagon!!! But check out the quad exhaust exiting in front of the rear wheels. Now that’s very cool!!

Interior was so nicely done!!!

Fairlane 500 Retractable!!!!

This Fairlane GTA was the bomb!!!

The Econoline had a V8 wedged between the seats!!!
Hope you enjoyed this recap of Fords on 4th Ave, here in Tucson, AZ.
Thanks for reading.
