I got a hand-me-down Pinto. It was indestructible by anything other than a collision. That sucker ran even when the dashboard was literally disintegrating and the engine and parts was held together with electrical tape and wire! All my relatives called it the MF- for Millenium Falcon( what a piece of junk). Orange yet, but it got the job done. It was still running fine when I donated it to charity because the dashboard and interior was coming off in chunks!
The car I’ve always wanted is probably on the list too. The AMC Pacer. Don’t know how they were mechanically speaking, but I liked the ‘fishtank’ look of it and the wide base.With all that glass it couldn’t have had a blind spot.
If they remake the Pacer- I’ll get one!
Quite a story with your Pinto. What year did you get rid of it?
“With all that glass it couldn’t have had a blind spot.”
With all that glass, I bet it just roasts the driver on a nice hot sunny day down in Phoenix. Or Detroit for that matter.
