What about lifting old articles from 70s magazines ( giving it credit ) for some fun. Could do a comparison deal like " Then" and " Now "

FlyerPinto · « **Reply #61 on:** December 16, 2008, 06:55:17 PM »

I'm already looking into reprinting some older articles. It isn't just a matter of giving credit though, as some of the publications are still in business and using anything requires written permission before publication. Otherwise you get a letter from a lawyer, and that is never a good thing. I like the idea of comparing the 70's opinion of the Pinto/Bobcat with the view held of it now, that should prove illuminating.

Pinto Times has gone to the printer!!! With any luck the first issue will be back in my hands and ready to mail within a week to ten days. Sorry about the delay, I just wanted it to be good.

HEY MATTHEW,JUST CHECKING IN TO SEE IF I CAN STILL POSSIBLY GET AN ISSUE,OR DO YOU NEED A FULL SUBSCRIPTION?WE STILL NEED TO GET TOGETHER TO COMPARE CARS & NOTES......... ..TOMMYS.

Tommy,

Though I prefer subscriptions (You can't imagine how much money went into this...) you can get just the one issue to start. Kind of like buying it off the newsstand I guess! If you can send me your phone number at work I'll give you a call tomorrow and we can work out a time to get together. I'm probably going to be home all weekend so maybe we could do it then. Just PM me if you want and we'll get it done.

Matthew

So how do I subscribe? They would go great with my 31 years of Mustang Times!!!!

FlyerPinto · « **Reply #66 on:** May 20, 2009, 04:51:20 PM »

Just send $32 to

Pinto Times
PO Box 646
Troy, OH 45373

and the first issue is on the way!

All I gotta say is .....WOW...... :hypno:

Sat down to read tonite, slick publication, quality authoring, well put together, congrats to Matt on a FINE effort. This is something that the Pinto Community has needed for years! If there was such a thing as a nomination towards "effort to recognize and upllift the Pinto and its history", you'd be a clear winner.

Much luck on future issues, I hope to be a contributor.

Have you got your five 1st senders of correct crossword puzzle yet? There's some zingers in there... :read: :lost: :surprised: $:-\$

FlyerPinto · « **Reply #69 on:** May 21, 2009, 05:47:50 AM »

I've received two thus far, one was perfect and one had only one mistake. It may have been harder than I realized!

FlyerPinto · « **Reply #70 on:** May 21, 2009, 05:50:06 AM »

And thanks for the comments everyone, I appreciate it.

I actually found the crossword to be quite enjoyable. Not only as a game, but also for how it opened my eyes to how much I really do know about the Pinto and it's history. I would say about 90% of the questions came right off the top of my head. 19 Across, 11 Across, and 8 Down really stumped me though!

Mailing mine out today, hopefully it gets there in time for the top three!

blupinto · « **Reply #72 on:** May 21, 2009, 10:20:28 PM »

My issues are 10 across, 18 across, 1 &4 down. The rest, once I thought about it, were easy.

pintomagic · « **Reply #73 on:** June 04, 2009, 04:08:01 PM »

I guess this mag wouldn,t be in stores would it?
Or is it just through the mail?
Mabye a mag in the stores would influence more public interest.
How much for shipping and handeling to send to Canada?
And by the way! I found some old car mags, mostly car craft from 1974 to 1976.
Wow alot of pintos, so effen cool!

Still only $32 for Canada, at least as far as I know. I'll move forward on that assumption until the post office lets me know different, and then we can work it out. I've still got a few of the first issue left so you're in good shape.

beicholz · « **Reply #75 on:** June 10, 2009, 06:03:02 PM »

How do I get a copy of the first issue and subscribe?

FlyerPinto · « **Reply #76 on:** June 10, 2009, 07:11:54 PM »

Just send $32 to:

Pinto Times
PO Box 646
Troy, OH 45373

Be certain you include your name and the full address where you want the subscription to go. I still have about a dozen copies left as of today.

Thanks!

Well worth anyone investing for a subscription, IMHO. This was a FREE, unpaid advertisement for Matt. No celebrity endorsements were made, nor animals harmed in the writing of this post. Your actual mileage may vary. See dealer for details. Offer valid in contiguous 48 states and Puerto Rico while supplies last. Stunt driver on closed course, do not attempt.

Matthew,

I just put my check in the mail... PLEASE save me one of those first issues if you still have one. I enclosed a note to that effect with the check also. So sorry I'm late getting my subscription in. From everything I've heard and read, you are doing a really fantastic job with Pinto Times. Looking forward to seeing for myself!

No problem at all, I hope you like it.

dga57 · « **Reply #81 on:** May 13, 2010, 01:00:07 AM »

I agree 100% - have not been disappointed by either of the issues I've received. I hope Pinto Times is around for a long time!

Dwayne :smile:

beicholz · « **Reply #82 on:** May 13, 2010, 09:18:53 AM »

Are back issues of Pinto Magazine available?

FlyerPinto · « **Reply #83 on:** May 13, 2010, 10:01:02 AM »

Sure thing, all you need to do is sign up. I still have copies of both of the first two issues so you would get them in one mailing. The info for subscribing is a couple or three posts up in this thread.

beicholz · « **Reply #84 on:** May 13, 2010, 10:34:34 AM »

Subscription on the way!

71pintok · « **Reply #85 on:** May 30, 2010, 11:23:40 AM »

FlyerPinto · « **Reply #86 on:** May 30, 2010, 08:12:36 PM »

I'm glad you enjoyed it. The next couple of issues should be a lot of fun.

dga57 · « **Reply #87 on:** September 09, 2010, 01:08:57 AM »

Any word on when the third issue of Pinto Times can be expected?

Dwayne :smile:

FlyerPinto · « **Reply #88 on:** September 09, 2010, 12:05:32 PM »

Should be heading to the printer within the next week or so and then right into the mail. Sorry about the delay but my tech lady was down for a couple of weeks. It should be a good one!

popbumper · « **Reply #89 on:** September 09, 2010, 12:13:23 PM »

Hi Matt:

Glad to see you hard at it, looking forward to what you have up your sleeve. Thanks as always for driving this effort!!
