Bainford Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 Nice little Pinto. I really like the early, thin-bumper Pintos. Cool model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for sharing this I agree. I had a '72 Pinto hatchback with the thinner bumpers. I never liked it much with the newer grill and fat bumpers. Nice model!

NYLIBUD Posted March 7, 2022 Author Share Posted March 7, 2022 (edited) Thanks again.Yea it’s a cool little car.Reminds me of a little frog. Idk why,but i always liked the early model Pintos,Vegas,Gremlins,and even Pacers.But as you guys said,and i completely agree,as the years went by,they got pretty ugly,all because the government mandated huge ugly safety bumpers,and stuff.Blaaa.
