From Wikipedia

The model line-up for 1970 initially featured 13 models. The base model "Fairlane 500", was available in a 2-door hardtop, 4-door sedan, and 4-door wagon.
Next the mid-level "Torino" was available as a 2-door and 4-door hardtop, a 4-door sedan and station wagon. The 4-door pillarless hardtop was a new body style for the 1970 model year .
The "Torino Brougham," the top trim level, was available as a 2-door and 4-door hardtop, and a 4-door station wagon.
The sporty "Torino GT" was available as a 2-door SportsRoof and convertible.
The performance model, the "Torino Cobra" was available as a 2-door SportsRoof only.

To add to this extensive line-up, the Falcon name was added mid-year as a new entry-level intermediate. The Ford Falcon compact model continued for the first half of the 1970 model year, but was discontinued as it could not meet new federal standards that came into effect on January 1, 1970.
As a result, the Falcon model name was used as the new price leader for the intermediate line. The 1970½ Falcon was available as a 2-door and 4-door sedan, and 4-door station wagon.
These were the lowest priced intermediate models with less standard features than the Fairlane 500s.
The Falcon was the only intermediate that used a rubber floor instead of carpet, and was the only series that offered a pillared 2-door sedan.
Also introduced mid-year was a Torino 2-door SportsRoof model, which was marketed as a low price alternative to the GT.
