Years Owned: My first Toronado was a 1968 W-34 with the bucket seats and center console... (weeps gently) It was a New England rustbucket in 1982 after less than 14 years. So sad. But it is what infected me and before I knew it I had another '68, a '69, a '70 and eventually inherited a friend's '67 and another friends '73. After buying my brand new Grand Prix in 1988 I retired the last of my Toronados and pulled the 455 I had rebuilt along the way and put it into storage in a friend's barn where it is to this day.
In Mid September of 2010 I happened to see a repeat of the show where Jay Leno did his 66 Toronado and had an instant remission of the disease which resulted in my purchase of a 1969 in very good condition. I am now in the process of fully rehabilitating it and hope to have it on the road in the spring of 2011.

I saw this site on a post by another inmate of this forum and thought it would be good to have here. I just got off the phone with Chuck from SMS Auto Fabrics and felt very good about putting them on my short list for the time when I am ready to deal with the interior. He seemed very knowledgable and willing to work with my needs - I am not going bone stock, rather, I am going to update various things such as my seats. He pointed out how practical it is to dye vinyl so I learned (confirmed) something I was wondering about just by talking with him. He knew about the 'Aztec' design prevalant in this year's interior.
