My first car was a 78 Pinto. White with red interior and four on the floor. I added an 8-Track player and speakers in the back. The car ROCKED. It lived 11 years then I sold it to my sister and she killed it in six months.
*sniff*
I needed an extra car once. I had two restaurants about 60 miles apart. I also had a Cessna 172. So, I thought, why not fly between the two? So, I bought a used 76 Pinto. The Red on with the black racing stripes and hood insignia. It only had around 9k on it, and paid $1500.00 for it. It became my airport car.
But, I liked it so much, I kept it for about 4 years. I never got it serviced, and finally wore the cam lobes almost flat, and traded it in on a Mazda GLC. GLC, BTW, stood for Great Little Car. LOL
my 1st car was a Bondo Maverick. but it had the “grabber”
package (302 V8) .great on the frozen lakes racing around silly.
