Hey just tell your parents that you want to go to the 2011 show as a gruduation gift :evil:

I suggested a similar graduation gift to my son (also graduates 2011) - he was less than impressed :rolleye:

Had a 1971 trunk model in High School, wanted another for old times sake, just purchased another in Washington State, very nice restore project.  I also own an all original 1972 Ford Pinto Runabout, one owner, always garaged, with 33,000 actual miles.  Life is SWEET!!!!

Good day all,
It's been awhile since I've needed to post on our anniversary party. We're still a year and a few months out from the gathering so things are moving along at a slower pace right now. From other posts it looks like we'll be hard to miss at Carlisle 2011. In the last few days I've been contacting catering services in the Carlisle area. We're trying to plan for a pig roast for Friday evening for all to attend on the Carlisle grounds. More too come,stay tuned!

Good Day all,
         A important update for all of you. We are trying to get a third class set up with Carlisle Productions for the 2011 year show only,a Pinto race car class(maybe it will continue on after). It would include drag cars,SCCA race cars and any other Pinto used in "off road" events. So if you have one of these cars we are trying to let you know that you will be greatly welcomed to the 40th anniversary party,we need you to let us know that you want to do this!

                                 Look out 2011!

Pardon me for being daft, but what are the other two Pinto classes? Mine is unrestored but not necessarily an eyesore. I want to enter mine in the next couple months.  I am going to be part of the Pinto Stampede if Ruby RedHot can make this trip! ;D

Unless I'm mistaken, the other two classes would be "Stock" and "Modified".  Ruby is definitely stock.

If any Pinto members are in SE Ohio area, I am going to need some help in the next few weeks getting my '78 fully stripped, patch panels welded and the car put back together.

As it stands, the current plans are for Dad to tow my ride out I hope to be able to cruise around in it and then tow it home.

The question is, can I get the 302 swap done in time, with no budget and 1/2 the tools?    :surprised:

I gotcha... When were you looking to get help with the car? Dayton is only about an hour or so from Columbus, so I would probably be able to help you out some.

I have been working on it a little every weekend.  I was hoping it wouldn't have rained today, I could have primed the engine bay...

I gotcha. I work Saturdays but would prolly be able to come by on a few Sundays to help you out. Who knows, I might actually have my Pinto on the road, driveable by then. That would be a decent test for Carlisle.
