Hi all,

I just signed up today and I'm looking to get back in to a Pinto after 33 years.  I now miss the Pinto Squire I had up until 1976.  Now that the kids are grown I'd like to get another one.  I was impressed with all the Pinto action at the Fabulous Fords Forever show back in April.  I had the lone Mercury Cougar Station Wagon there.  One of your fine members gave me his card from the Western U.S. Pinto Owners' Association and that's how I found this site.  I'm sure I'll be spending a lot of time surfing the site.

My first post was this one:

I either get a Pinto wagon soon or I have to fix my Cougar up.  My 73 Squire had the 2.0 liter engine and four speed and I'd like to find another one.  I do like the simplicity of the 2.0.
