Hey Navy... I was working in the Camp Pendleton area today at Oceanside Harbor Dr. If you saw an orange CalTrans truck and some person hoeing the heck outta the weeds, that would've been me.  :)

Just goes to show, the drive train of our Pinto's is basically bullet proof. The body may be gone but the drive train is still going! Show me a Vega in that condition still driving! :)

If he stuck it in the tire well & ran a longer fuel line zip tied under the car nobody would be the wiser. I bet the oil & filter in that engine hasn't been changed since he bought the car.

There was a Vega wagon in the same warehouse where I found my Pinto. Spotless interior, decent paint, and only 60000 miles. Unfortunately, I could find nothing good, in my research on Vega's, unless I planned on yanking the engine.
