The Ford Torino is an automobile that was produced by Ford in the North American market between 1968 and 1976. The car was named after the city of Turin (Torino in Italian), the city that was considered "the Italian Detroit".
Gran Torino trivia: Gran Torino is also the name of a 2009 Clint Eastwood movie. The plot line focuses on a racist Korean War veteran living in a crime-ridden Detroit neighborhood is forced to confront his own lingering prejudice when a troubled Hmong teen from his neighborhood attempts to steal his prized Gran Torino. One of the two objects that matter most to Kowalski in life are (wait for it) the classic Gran Torino that represents his happier days working in a Ford assembly plant.
