I hope the Baby and I can make this one!!! Do our Pintos need showroom shine? I know "shiny is good!", but how about works in progress?

Works in progress just highlight how dedicated we all are to a genuine automotive classic.

Bring it out. You will have a blast

I also received my application yesterday and will be sending it out shortly. It sure looks neat having our own classification . The Pinto is in the shop having some minor repairs and cosmetic surgery performed. The biggest thing was to have the windshield replaced with a new SHINY one. Brad will like that!! Looking forward to seeing everyone there. Joe in Morgan Hill, CA

I just sent 5 applications in for me! Lets hit that 40 or dare I say, 50 mark this year! If you have more than one running pinto, beg your wife, sister, brother, dad, uncle, neighbor, cat, mail man, etc. to drive it there for you! That's what I do! I don't care if your car is 100k clean or a driver, as long as you love it, bring it! If you know someone that has one, get them to go (looks at cutelilputtput t)! Can't wait for the show! I will keep you posted on the day before. We will have another gathering at my house! If you need a place to stay, don't waste money with a hotel room, we have space! In fact, Lovepants72 said you can bunk with him and his bother on their bunk beds. Now I don't know a better invite than that!

I will hope Baby's fixed and roadworthy for a trip like that come April. If she's not I'll be happy to drive someone else's, so long as it's an automatic. :laugh:

Where do I get an application?

you know brad, one of the best times i EVER had in a Pinto was an afternoon spent running up & down Turnbull Canyon Rd. in Whittier several times in a stock '72 with an automatic. :amazed:

75bobcatv6 · « **Reply #16 on:** January 19, 2009, 12:39:44 PM »

my first fun time in a pinto was drifting my moms cw up and down the dirt road we lived on lol.

gordie · « **Reply #17 on:** January 19, 2009, 10:52:45 PM »

I would like to participate in this but my Pinto powered Model T Touring car does not look much like a Pinto. Can I join you guys or should I register with the Model T's?

turbopinto72 · « **Reply #18 on:** January 20, 2009, 07:04:04 PM »

Gordie ,I think you would have to register with the model Ts and park with them but you can join us for all the fun.

turbopinto72 · « **Reply #22 on:** January 24, 2009, 07:13:09 PM »

Bring your car no matter what condition it is in. We will have a great time. This car show is NOT a show/shine show. There are no awards and its just a good time.

Fred Morgan · « **Reply #23 on:** January 26, 2009, 02:27:55 PM »

My form is ready to mail. Any 1 needing parts let me know. Its a good time to get free ship on doors, fenders and hoods all the big heavy items that cost 4 times to ship then what part is worth. Brad do you still need driver, my daughter is comming up from Sandy Eggo. Also I need 4.11 - 9" gears or something close thanks Fred

turbopinto72 · « **Reply #24 on:** January 26, 2009, 07:01:03 PM »

Fred, thanks for the offer to get parts to the show. Dont know how many of my cars will be on the road yet. I am hoping for all 3 but, with 2 turbo cars anything can happen.

Fred Morgan · « **Reply #25 on:** January 27, 2009, 05:14:11 PM »

Since its the 19th of the month, does Pinto class 19 mean anything

Hey, hope to see you this year. BTW I'm glad you were persistent in trying to get a membership to FordPinto.com.
