That's just the model cars (that I could display. I had a lot more but no room to set them out). I have watches, posters, brochures, parts (NOS 1/4 panel, recall kit, NOS woodgrain, etc), boxes of toys and remote control cars (some I built), clothing. You name it, I might have it LOL!!

Title: Re: Lets see some of your Pinto Collectables
Post by: arkyt on February 11, 2012, 08:00:18 PM: Yeah, where'd you get the valve cover?
Title: Re: Lets see some of your Pinto Collectables
Post by: mrskydog on February 17, 2012, 07:55:15 PM: Today a friend of mine brought me this ....i thought it was pretty cool. He gave me a Sears-Ford Large Cut-Out Pinto. Has anyone else seen one? It was offered at Sears to customers to introduce the Pinto I guess. Bright colors and pretty neat!

Post by: blupinto on February 20, 2012, 12:28:03 AM: I don't have the Sears version but I do have the Ford version that came with some dealer brochures. If I could only stop this friggin' sneezing fit... no, it's not allergies. I'm thinking it's a polyp or an otherwise faulty sinus. It's always the right side of my nose/sinus. I need to get my collection out but this crap won't let me concentrate so I can get my goodies together and take a decent picture. >:(

OK rant over. Cross your fingers. I want to share my Pinto treasures tomorrow. ;)

Post by: blupinto on March 01, 2012, 11:55:07 PM: I'm gonna apologize for the crappy lighting in my pictures. Compact fluorescent lights are great for my energy bill but not so much for good overall lighting. THe flash on my camera wasn't so hot either. Anyway, here's my stuff. ;D
