It looked like it was pretty much all there. The front grill is broken. I think it had a hole in it. It is missing it's sport mirrors! ;D LOL
Just thought I'd share a Pinto find!! :)
Poor lil' red Pinto... at least the armrests are safe! LOL
Lol. So that's what you robbed them off of! :P
It looks to have some nice condition fenders on it!
How much for the wood grain plastic piece on the dash? I had one but it got destroyed during a modification. :(
How about the rubber bumper ends (which look more like '80!)?
Wish I would have seen your guy's posts before now! We just went back out to that PP on Sat. Pinto is still there and looks to be in same shape as the last!
I will pm you guys if we go back out again, to see if you are wanting any thing!!

Only things I'm interested in would be the dash wood grain panel and the body plugs all around the engine bay.
If the battery tray is in good shape, that seems to be an item a lot of people are looking for. I don't need one myself as I have two, but someone here probably would want it.
Does it have front and rear sway bars?

I think it is all still there, except for the arm rests LOL and the wheels! I don't mind getting the dash piece but I"m not wanting to try to get big and hard to get off parts!! I will be going out by myself most likely. I'm not sure when hubby will be going back out again.
I just wanted to let people around this area know that it was out there. Or maybe if someone wanted to make a day trip out if it, they could google the address and go get stuff off of it!!!
Oh, I will try to get the bumper pieces too. Just not sure when I can get back out there. It is supposed to start raining again on my days off of course!! LOL I will get what I can when I can!!! :D

:lol: Between these posts and my cats' catnip-fueled antics I am straight LMAO!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:
Is the car still there??
As you know I aquired my new baby and I have found I need a couple things (small).

Just an update on this. Hubby is checking on what the whole car would cost him. He is "kinda" friends with one of the guy's that either owns or works at that yard. We may end up bringing it home and stripping it out. So I will update when I find out what is going on!!!
It's gone! :( Went out there this morning to pull some more stuff off of it. Hubby never found out about getting the whole car so I wanted to go get the bumper tips and some other stuff. It is gone and they said it probably went to the crusher! :( Bummer.
Kim
Bummer! It wasn't there long, was it... now THAT would've been a nice Valentines Day gift to you... it was red and everything! lol. (meaning Hubby brought it home for you on the sly!)
