1969 Ford Torino Talladega - Blue (Maisto) 1/18
Product Details Temp out of stock
Though the Talladega was a bit heftier and weightier than other Torino models, the 428 CJ still pushed it to mid-14 second 1/4-miles. However, it was much better suited to left-hand turns on an ovel race-track. At the time the 754 racing-inspired Torino Talladega cars were built, Ford's hopes rested on the slope-nosed fastback.

The Ford Torino, introduced for 1968, was the sportier companion to the Fairlane. The Torino Cobra and Torino GT variants with 428 Cobra Jet or 429 Super Cobra Jet engines are true muscle car royalty. The 1969 Talladega — a limited-production aerodynamic special for NASCAR — had a distinctive flush grille and extended nose and remains one of the rarest and most valuable Torinos.
This 1/18 scale replica of the 1969 Ford Torino in Blue is produced by Maisto to collector-grade specifications. At 1/18 scale — the most popular collector scale — the model measures approximately 10 inches in length and displays beautifully on a shelf or in a glass cabinet. Every detail — from paint finish to badging — is reproduced from measurements taken from the original vehicle.
