Title: 1972 ford pinto sprint for auction!
Post by: bbobcat75 on August 26, 2013, 11:10:04 AM
Was looking into the up coming auction in Pierce Nebraska and of the 500 cars being sold looks like one is a 72 sprint, it looks rough in the photos but will be fun to check out while i am there!!
 
Is anyone else going to the BIG attraction!>!>
 
flights, hotels and rental cars are getting harder to find, got lucky a family memeber of mine lives an hour away!!
 
take care

I looked at the pictures... it's faded, but I can see the blue inserts and red piping on the front seats... It sure looks like a Sprint to me! The only thing I don't see is the U.S.A. flag sticker on it. I see potential. I hoper you can grab it, bbobcat!  ;D

stop bidding against me >:( ! just kidding. I didn't mention it in hopes that I could be the high bidder on it. but if someone has deeper pockets than me, more power to you. I hope someone on here out bids me if it happens, that way I know it will atleast go to a good home. instead of some derby guy that will just destroy it.
