Digi Key says they're the number one internet site for electronic components born in the back of a car.  The ad shows the rear of a later Pinto wagon.  Since my involvement with Pintos I've met a lot of people that were conceived in the back of one.

If nothing else, this shows the key role back seats of cheap cars have played in American History. I needed fog lights on the inside of my '57 Country Sedan. Youth is wasted on the young

i had a guy who wanted to rent my car for his 35th. He showed the car to his son and said thats where you were concieved. After that I told him no! There is no way you can do the same things in the back seat that you did 35 years ago.
