Hi Mike. I give you both thumbs up for keeping your long and well-running '76 wagon, well, up and running! My '71 doesn't have as many miles on her but she's racking up memories for me as well as miles on her!  ;D

Mike Rich, I wasn't trying to be a pain... I'm just so used to the pic of you and your wife. I hope I didn't offend you. :)

Swap Meet Score!! Well, kind of anyway! LOL
« on: February 07, 2010, 10:44:22 PM »
Hubby and I went to the W X swap meet today! (W X is what the freeway section is called and the meet is under that portion of the freeway) We didn't find anything Pinto at all. Heck hardly saw any type of Ford stuff there! We did score some 13 inch tires for the the Pintos though!!!

The don't look that great in the pics and they do need cleaning up, but they are brand new old tires!! LOL They are in great shape for their age! No cracks what so ever and the rubber feels like new too!! After just paying 250 for 4 white walls, we picked these up for 80 bucks!!



This is the tags that are still stuck to them! Who remembers this place?



It's hard to see in this pic, but the tread is the deepest tread I have ever seen!!! LOL



These are a bit taller and wider then what the Pinto calls for, but for 80 bucks, I don't think it will be that noticeable! LOL

I have come to realize that I am powerless to cuteness of a rusty old Pinto.

I had to replace the tires on my '74 Pinto in either late 1975 or early 1976, and I got 'em from Montgomery wards!  That really brings back some memories!
