I have the 1974 version, but pretty much the same as yours. Check it out.

it's a pretty sweet ride but there's just not enough pictures to really say anything else and just a little something else i used to have a 76 montego mx brougham 2-door so i know about what you have there so yeah you have a pretty nice car.

Had one of these when I graduated highschool in 1979 - my mom gave it to me. It had every option available, it was a dark green color and had a 460 police interceptor motor, C6 transmission posi-trac rear end. I put in TRW forged pistons, a crane fireball cam, eldebrock lowrise intake manifold, Holly 850 dual feed-dual pumper carb and hooker headers on it. It would pass anything but a gas station. Had a cop friend in Valpariso Fl, outside the east gate of Eglin AFB clock me one night after leaving base at 154 mph. Never really found out what the top end was. Didn't trust the tires to go any faster, but the high speed runs were a great way to dry it off after the carwash4. It would do 0-70 in 5.5 seconds in first gear, topped out at 110 in second gear. Thing rode like glass. Took many trips from Ft. Walton Beach Fl. to Pittsburgh PA & back. Average time was 14 hours & 4 tanks of gas (27 Gallon tank)for the 1100 mile trip. Cost about 35 dollars to fill the tank back then. Loved that car. Had lots of room in the back seat for me and my girlfriends in H.S. Would love to find another and rebuild it the same, except for the ugly green color ford had then. Take good care of it.

Nice looking Montego...if you ever wanted a nice ride, you got it man.
Not many left, these cars are awsome cruisers, and take a beating.
If you ever need help finding info, just check out places like the Fairlane club of America, or the Ford Torino club on the MSN site.
