i remember them making pintos fast. one of my good friends from atco had a 10 second hatchback. mavericks, and gremlins both came with v-8's.

i just couldn't help but laugh when i saw the heading......and the first line is "0 to 60 in 60 seconds". :rofl

Can't find the film now, but it was classic of another car just nicking the rear bumper and the old Pinto blew sky high.

Ahh the 70s

Post by: ozrocker on July 03, 2011, 07:49:04 AM: Girlfriends brother in 77 or so had a Yellow/Black Pinto wagon that had a 289 in it.
He chopped the top behind driver's seat, made it into a sort of pickup.
Called it a "Pin-up"

Post by: Penguin on July 03, 2011, 11:29:26 AM: My dad has told me stories about the Ford Pinto. People who drove one had bumper stickers that read:

"I live for today, I drive a Pinto"
"Ford. Pinto. Fireball."

The one time that he ever rode in one, he got tailgated. I can't imagine how scary that must have been.

Post by: Stogie on July 03, 2011, 01:18:36 PM: My very first brand new car was a 72 Ford Pinto. People used to have bumper stickers on them that said "Please don't tailgate this is not one of Ford's better Ideas" There was a video put out that showed one getting tailgated. It looked like someone opened a firehose up in the back seat. (turns out that video was faked)
