As much as my dad loved Fords, we never once owned a pinto. He was too afraid to stick any of his kids in something so small. But he did have a 72 Maverick, for a short time. Grabber hood, 302, but automatic. Basically a stretched out Pinto
My Grandpa had a '78 4 speed and 1st meant you were crawling. It had a 400 HP. The gas gauge when down just backing out of the garage. It was nothing fancy but I loved that truck for sentimental reasons
that is a sweet looking car I must say
You can literally see the gas hand going down in mine. 8 mpg whether you’re pulling a house or no load at all and like a 15 gallon tank.
I look at those trucks and nothing but metal inside with maybe some vinyl on the dash. Great trucks. Hell with mpg!
Pops was REALLY into Fords. He restored several Galaxy 500's later in life, I think that was his favorite car ever. Had a black 64 like this one:
Should have gotten the judge.
Dat orange was ugly.
Looking for a picture and found out it was introduced in 1969 and that orange was called Carosel Red
