Pinto Car Club of America

My uncle told me about a pinto his friend has who lives about 8 miles from me.  Said it was a small bumper brown runabout.  So today i went to go look at it...

The fellow told me it was a 72 with no rust and ran great.  So great in fact that the people drove it over to the crusher.  It was crushed and then loaded it up on the truck.  :(

So, a nice pinto bites the dust because i didn't get there 30 min earlier.  I even passed the truck with it in the back.

So we talk for a little while and the fellow tells me that they can't crush em with the wheels and that it had aluminum wheels on it.  He takes me over to a pile of tires where I find 4 nice aluminum slots with centercaps.  Asked him how much he wanted for them.  total price: $0.00!

So I guess there is a silver lining to every cloud.

That's really heart-breaking. I live in southern indiana. Out here every car older than 1993 has lots of rust holes and deterioration, i dream to find my DREAM PINTO out there in Arizona, I can't wait for the trip out west to get the lucky one!
