Of course, there were also 1,475 Super Cobra Jet cars sold, giving a total of 9,150 Torino Cobras sold in ’70, which is a far cry from what its sibling had for the year. The problem was, as with all the other muscle car models that were not well known, it was overshadowed and outsold by the muscle car that everyone knew about, the iconic Ford Mustang.
