Just bought a orange drag pinto
1980 Turbo Pinto(if I can remember properly)
2.3 Liter
Racing slicks
Don't know the exact specs on the turbo yet
4-barrel carb
nitrous feed/metal lines to trunk
5-speed
New valve cover off a Thunderbird (It says Fuel Injection Turbo, lol)
Strange Edelbrock air filter on carb
Full roll cage
Only one bucket seat
Racing harness
Hardly any dash left, no normal gauges, just boost and temp mainly
No exhaust or piping, straight from exhaust manifold
1976 Bobcat
Dark brown paint
Very clean
No motor though, the guy pulled it before hand
4-speed
Actual floor A/C unit installed on passenger side (haven't seen those very often)
Brand new wheels, and nice chrome rims
Great dash, not a crack on it
The seats are kinda worn and so is the carpet
Pics will be up very soon, probably on my gallery. I just wanted to share in my my father's new play toys! My family has about 13-15 Pintos/Bobcats now! And don't worry, I took pictures of all of them to share too!
Congrats and they sound cool!!!! Can't wait to see the pics!!!

Sounds like a couple nice finds. Looking forward to pics!

More PInto!
And one of the Bobcat.
Bobcat
These and the rest of our cars will all be on my gallery too!
Those two look nice. I noticed one of the shots were of a 77 front end. Which one did that belong to?
what ya doing with the bobcat?? are you going to fix her or part her out??
It's my father's car, and he only has one other Bobcat so I think he's going to restore it. The whole body is in pretty good shape, just the inside is a little torn up. The dash is in the best condition I've seen in a while and there's nothing wrong with any of the windows, so the only thing that needs to be cleaned up is the seats and carpet basically. And of course a motor put in.
xcore does the Tbird in the background of the bobcat pics have the 3.8 or the 4.8? if its the 3.8 you can actually use that in the bobcat would take a little work but it will fit and would make a nice power plant for it. thats what im doing with my wagon, 3.8l Supercharged motor =)

It's got a 3.6 I believe, and it's a fairly newer car, just totaled front and back.
Good luck with your wagon! My father really likes those styles with the bubble window but they're so hard to find.
