Mike 1017 Posted December 1, 2024 Posted December 1, 2024 I built this about 15 years ago. Does anyone remember JIM IN OHIO? He had the best prices and lowest shipping. One of the kits that I ordered from him was missing the steering wheel. He apologized and said, "I will send any kit you want". Who does that anymore? I still have the original decals. Mike 7
Old Buckaroo Posted December 1, 2024 Posted December 1, 2024 That looks great, the metallic green and the flames really make this stand out. I like to see these older kits built up. Ive ordered from Jim in Ohio and Fred from NY, they both were good to deal with.

Sledsel Posted January 9 Posted January 9 Great looking Pinto Funny!!! As an FYI, That's a Boss 429, not an SOHC and the silver piece below the coil is the magneto. The only Ford with the distributor in the rear is a Y block. Just an observation and information for any future builds. Would be something like this. Again, an FYI, not a knock on your build.

I built his 426 Hilborn Hemi.
ybsluos Posted January 20 Posted January 20 Right on Mike! And yeah Jim is a stand up guy for making you that offer. That’s somebody I would gladly buy from.
