My first car was a 1973 Ford Pinto.

On a quiet night in the summer we could sit outside and listen to it rust.

I think I can beat your Pinto. I see you my Vega and raise the Gremlin I’ve owned.

My dad had a '73 Pinto hatchback 4-speed. We used to put concrete blocks in the back and pop wheelies with the clutch.

(Hey, we were teenagers i.e. stupid.)

Mid 70’s American Cars were challenging. No wonder Honda and Toyota got a foothold. While I while liked styling of the Javelin & AMX models from AMC, who can forget the turd called Gremelin?
