2 door I would deffinetly save not even a thought .4 door take off the front clip ,drive train, rear end . Part/Scrap the rest . Love to see you older (no offense) guys, still out there pulling cars out the woods keeps me motivated .
Don't even know what condition that 4 door is in yet so why say to just save the front clip, and drivetrain and scrap the rest? Wouldn't it make more sense to find out what condition it is in before declaring it to be a few parts and the rest being scrap or are you one of the people who think if a car is not a 2 door it is automatically only good for parts? 4 doors are not only more affordable but are also more practical and convenient than 2 doors, and for some they are a necessity
@@todddenio3200 I own 4 doors , even a six door . . I drive a 1974 van everyday for work . Rolled a million miles . I’m not into junking anything worth saving but a four door Torino sitting in the woods for 30 years . Please, we both know the underside is completely rotted .

Looks as if someone was once doing some serious towing with the Falcon. Those coil springs above the leaf springs were “helper” springs and probably installed by a U-Haul or camper dealer’s shop. Them, along with the coil over shocks, tell me that it was pulling some serious weight (not just messing around with a utility or homemade truck bed trailer). I could just imagine it pulling a ‘60s era “canned ham” camper back in it’s time. I am sure it would have some stories to tell. Hopefully, you’ll find it worth keeping and saving! It must been one of very few 2 door ‘70 1/2 Falcons lucky enough to have a V8 and an automatic made and still existing? Hopefully, the 4 door can provide the damaged or missing pieces … and maybe the factory A/C? Nice score … but I don’t envy you working in the hot, snake infested TN woods to save it!
I agree. They must have pulled something big. A buddy sent me info on V8 Falcons. They only built 5300 2 door V8 Falcons in 1970.5. So I guess I should definitely save it
The guy down the street from me in Sacramento California bought his new and it is completely original, 302 with a c4 I believe he said, and it has no rust. Just patina from sitting in his driveway.
You whine a lot all you did is complain I hope the owner didn't hear you weren't they free.if you didn't want them you should have left them I'm sure someone else doing u tube would like them.
First off, they were NOT free, as I first thought. The owner is totally cool with me. Not a single other person would come and get them, not even the scrap guys. So if the whining bothered you, sorry
Hi there mate the 1970s model looks great looking cars i only seen 1969 model car like that and the hapcap on the 7o i had the caps on my zc 1969 fairlane Australia car mate and like the American Fords too great looking cars from the 50s 60s 70s 80s
For sure, torino parts a expensive and hard to find. We are I'm the middle of a budget rebuild on the mustang engine. At least I'll have a spare. Thanks for watching!
clean it out real good to get a good look at everything ...if just the floors or rotted its not a big deal...look at the shock towers ford rot too..i like this car
People are ridiculous. Park a car and no preservation precautions taken whatsoever! Exactly what do they think will happen to the car? Then most still think they are worth thousands!
Can box the main frame if it not to far gone & there is also replacement front & rear sub assemblies & believe there is panels but their really cheesy nowadays, the drivetrain is YUGE! if one can be cobbled from the two your gold, one seems to be for parts that’s how we did it back in the day
4:15 caretaker??lol yeah right,im not sure if he knew what a caretaker is??i would not want him being a (caretaker) to anything i have.so sad how he just left them to rot away!!

The two door needs to be saved if underneath isn't rusted completely out and what ever happened with your daughter's project mustang I been waiting for another video and started hoping everything was OK
I'm going to save the 2 door. The mustang is moving forward. It the next video. I'm doing a quick rebuild on the 302 had to wait on parts. She works 2 jobs, but has taken a few days off to come up. So hang in there. It's the next video
@flatbrokegarage glad to hear you are going to save it and I understand about the money situation and I guarantee you I will be here watching and liking your videos and that's a promise
If you find that has a bad engine, I would not mind taking that. I got a 351W that I want to build. I am looking for a roller of some kind to put it in.
I’ve had a long standing argument with a couple of friends about the existence of a Torino bodied Falcon. They seem to be rare in Canada, but Fomoco also rebadged the Mercury Montego as a Comet in 1968-69. I have a’68 Montego in 1980, while my neighbour had the same year Comet.
Well my hats off to you for sure getting these cars out of some pretty tricky locations. Both good parts cars and with a bit of work one might be a runner eventually. That F350 you looked looks like a pretty solid truck to me. Thanks for showing us another video adventure.
@@flatbrokegarage yes I seen that also and all that together I’m better it was a moonshine runner maybe next week you can bring that up on a video!!! By for now Jerry from Grant in north Alabama
You're right. To me, the 70 Ausie falcon looks like a cross between a US 70 Mustang and a 69 Ford falcon. This generation Falcon/Torino is very close to the 73 Falcon XB GT, the famed pursuit special. It's one of my all-time favorite cars
The first car I ever restored was a 70 Fairlane 500 Torino. 302 with a C4 and factory towing package posi . Same green color. After headers, 4 barrel and hemi orange paint. I drove that car across the country twice. I sold it prior to my first deployment. I miss that damn car lol
Those original wheel covers from the two door would look nice on it though. They are the same as the ones that were on my old 70 Torino. @@flatbrokegarage
You found yourself a couple of genuine early 70's Ford Leaverite Woodies. You must be really hard up for somewhere to spend your money and something to do. It could save your life to learn how to use a winch safely.
that 4 door torino is not worth much being a 4 door,as nobody wants those to restore but there good for parts cars for the 2 doors guys are restoring them like the front clip and trunk lid.

Got to save all you can, everything has good parts and pieces someone needs, no matter how rough.
I'm definitely going back for the other one. Under side actually looks worse
As long as the Falcon is pretty solid it needs to be saved. especially being a half year model.👍
I want to keep it. We will see

Should be the next video. We are still deciding what to do. Lots if new cool parts just arrived, so we will be doing something
Love those Falcons and torinos
Me too
I used to own a 1970 Torino GT, 351C. That's the one car, out of all the cars I've ever owned, that I really wish I still had!
The 2 dr needs to be saved!
I'm going to take a closer look at it this weekend. Think it's a keeper
They are nice old cars and they are worth saving .
Definitely going to try to save the falcon
Rare 2-door sedan (with vent window). That bodystyle was only available in the Falcon.
And they only built 5300 V8 2 door cars my buddy just told me

Im Loving that two door Falcon! Great finds!
Me too! I'll have a set then
I'll never understand people who abandon vehicles in the woods
Funny thig is they were there before the woods 😆 that's how long they have been back there.
Its really not to bad for sitting in the woods for 20 + years! Id save it.

The 70s has to be my favorite decade. Thanks for watching
the falcon is neat .. i remember one from way back that was a 351 Cleveland 4 barrell with a 4 speed and shaker hood ..
I actually have one I'm working on
Get them both. Even if they year in half you will have parts for other cars and and engine for the mustang.
For sure, torino parts a expensive and hard to find. We are I'm the middle of a budget rebuild on the mustang engine. At least I'll have a spare. Thanks for watching!
I think the two door is worth saving thank you
I'm gonna try
clean it out real good to get a good look at everything ...if just the floors or rotted its not a big deal...look at the shock towers ford rot too..i like this car
Yeah, at first glance the important stuff looks good
Where is mustang project? Finished?
Waiting on parts, you can follow it on Facebook Flatbroke garage. more coming up next month
This is going to be good!!!
Nice job on loading the ford
Thanks! It was a pain, I think the Torino is going to put up a fight as well
I would save them both. Once they are gone that is it. Not coming back to greet you.
Going to try my best
Yeah save the car your the best !!
Going to try
That's some fancy maneuvering to pull that out! You should call this one the Dauberino
I like that! Or the Green Hornet 😆
The green mud hornet
I'd say that the extra springs on the rear end suggests possible 'shine runner?
😆 my thoughts exactly! I do live in the heart of moonshine country
craving for a world lost
Make good parts car mate
Sweet score right there!
Yeah... I'm pretty happy with the 2 door
I love the 70 torinos wanted one since I was 16, now 47 still want one
I might have a 4 door for sale with factory AC
How much if you decide to sell, by the way enjoy your videos
People are ridiculous. Park a car and no preservation precautions taken whatsoever!
Exactly what do they think will happen to the car?
Then most still think they are worth thousands!
Yeah... it's odd. I'm just glad I got these are a reasonable price
Please save the Falcon. We need more Falc-orino content!
I do love my Falcarino. I literally drive it every week.
Can box the main frame if it not to far gone & there is also replacement front & rear sub assemblies & believe there is panels but their really cheesy nowadays, the drivetrain is YUGE! if one can be cobbled from the two your gold, one seems to be for parts that’s how we did it back in the day
Definitely keeping the 2 door
4:15 caretaker??lol yeah right,im not sure if he knew what a caretaker is??i would not want him being a (caretaker) to anything i have.so sad how he just left them to rot away!!
Hopefully I can save to 2 door

very defintion of sweat equity shineing like well oil been thier get more like that seeing someone else drive your car like

For sure, I have it closed now. Thanks for watching!
Cool,the Falcon comes equipped with its own garden/forest.
😆 and wildlife too 😆
I would try and save that for sure
Fix the 2 door put the front end and the back glass from the 4 door on the 2 door 😊
Yep, already working on a plan
Wow I seen one of those in Cleveland TN parked in the side of the house clean .so soon as I figured out what street it is on I let you know
