Title: Newbie!!!
Post by: pintogirl on October 29, 2008, 07:28:25 PM
Just thought I'd introduce myself!

My name is Kim and I am looking to buy a couple Pintos. I have always liked them from my younger years. My Mom had a (not sure of year) blue with white stripe trunk style Pinto!!

I am looking to relive those memory's by buying a Pinto or two to restore!! I have my eye on a couple right now and am going to look at the this next weekend!! Wish me luck!!!

 :welcome: Aboard!

It is always nice to have another face join our ranks.  Have fun here, and peruse the forum, as there is a plethora of information available (some more reliable than others so be attentive) and there are many folks here willing to give advice and even help to those in need.
Good luck!

Welcome aboard Kim! All of us are a little crazy, but we all love out Pintos. Everyone here will help when they can, and sometimes they offer up their personal help.

I am on other carf forums but the group on here have the nicest people on here by car.. You might hear the slogan "Shiney = Good" alot. That is the slogan and we all believe it.  ;D

That's a really nice looking Pinto. You gotta love the models with the skinny bumpers, although I am a fan of the 77-78 models myself.

Hi Kim!

    There's a few of us ladies who love pintos!!! I currently don't have the pleasure of owning one but I did several years ago- it was my age too! I'm currently looking to buy an unwanted '74 mustang ll to restore. Good luck with your new baby!
