Good article! 
 
Reads as if the writer was letting out some long-held frustrations: "the public's polluted perceptions" indeed!

Just a passionate car guy.  John Clor from the Ford performance group has owned Pinto's, his wife currently has one, he has written books on the Mustang and has owned those as well.   He has fought the Pinto fight and is a true freind of the Pinto community even when at times it was not the popular thing to do.

It was a fantastic article. Too bad he didn't mention that "Ford Tough" red '71 with the 1.6 that came all the way from Oceanside California and back without stepping one tread onto a trailer... ::)
One can never have too many Pintos!

Now that's what I call a great read!
1978 Ford Pinto Sedan - Family owned since new

Remembering Jeff Fitcher with every drive in my 78 Sedan.

I am a Pinto Surgeon. Fixing problems and giving Pintos a chance to live again is more than a hobby, it's a passion!
