1973 Pinto Runabout

     Bought locally in 1973.  with now actual 69,000 l miles subject o change as it is being driven a lot to doctors and grocery stores.   This car has always  been in the garage when not driven . So the carpets, upholstery, door panels and a;l are as new.   Everything in this car works as it always has. The2000 engine runs excellent and is quiet; There are no fluid leaks. The car has a very tight correct front end and there are no vibrations or rattles.  The only piece of this car that is not factory original, is the  "High Performance Muffler",  which increases fuel mileage. 
     Readying to sell the following was accomplished:  Tune up, oil* filter changed and fuel filter changed; New brake master cylinder; New brake lines &  brake pads all the way around;  New tires; "factory air" compressor nipples changed out to  accept other than freon; new windshield wiper blades; new upper and lower radiator hoses and all belts. 
     It is metallic rootbeer brown with brown upholstery and brown carpets.   It ti perfect?  No it is not. It is just so close that there is nothing on the road quite like it.  This car draws a crowd just going out to dinner.  Car club gets first chance and then it goes up on Ebay and will be gone.
