Ford Talladega

The Talladega was a special edition of the Ford Torino, named after the popular NASCAR racetrack Talladega Superspeedway. A Talladega GT edition was also available. The Talladega, like the Torino, competed in the Grand National. While there was a famous Talladega 500 NASCAR race, and many Fords did receive a 500 trim (including the Torino), there was strangely no Ford Talladega 500. Like the Torino, the Talladega was famously driven by Richard Petty.
