Daniel Mahn had a really nice Ford Torino that he liked a lot.
When he had the opportunity swap the car even-up for Torino he liked better, though, he just couldn’t say no.
About 20 years ago, the South Milwaukee, Wis., resident came to the Iola Car Show with the idea of maybe shopping for a new Torino. Not only did he find one, but the guy who had it was willing to make a trade — saving Mahn the trouble of having to sell his own car.
On the return trip home, Mahn found himself behind the wheel of a nice 1968 Torino GT convertible. Not only did he get the big-block that he was after, but he also got a much rarer car. Of the 100,384 Torino GTs built for the 1968 model year, only 5,310 were ragtops. And a ragtop with a big-block 390 was an especially good catch, as far as Mahn was concerned. And it was a convertible with air-conditioning!
