Funny thing about a Pinto. In the late 80's my younger brother was given a Pinto that was "driven" by the proverbial grandmother who only drove it to church on Sunday's and kept it in the garage otherwise. I believe it was a 1975 Pinto and it still had the new car smell and only 7,000 miles. The funny part was that, even this new, the car was a piece of junk but it was funny to see a totally mint Pinto driving around in 1988. Driving a car only a short distance once a week is an excellent way to kill it, even if it's not a Pinto. -- Cheers, Bev 11111111111111111111111111111 "To turn is to admit defeat." -- H. Grierson |

Of course I had a station wagon - which looks better than a coupe - and it really was orange, with orange and black upholstery. And I had "moved up" from a VW Squareback - which, admittedly, probably was a piece of junk. TCS (The Colorado Skier) Loveland opens in 7 weeks. |
