« on: March 21, 2011, 09:24:06 PM »
seance I Don't have the money to get another pinto right now I have been terming my focus in to one till I have saved the money for a real one and seance I have done this you would not believe how many people thing it is a real pinto like its from Canada or something thew I do believe that if they had kept making them they would look similar to it


How many people ask you if that's a real pinto?

That's awesome! I always wondered what people would think if I were to do that to another car.

yes it tends to do that I had a woman probably in her early 40s stop me to ask if ford had started making them again  and I had to tell here what it usto be but she said it looks cool anyways
I thanked her
