I'm gauging the worth of having a pinto shipped from russia to here.  it is my brother's Girlfriends car, She doesnt want it. and wants it to go to someone that would enjoy it. If i get the car i will sell it on here to get the money that i need to finish something on the car i already have. let me know interest in the Idea of a RHD pinto . Either way i think it would be a fun car =)

That's a rarity for sure! Also very expensive. I'm assuming this Pinto was assembled in Germany...

RHD?  Russia, as does the rest of Europe except the U.K., drives on the right (in both senses of the word) side of the road.

Has to be from the U.K.  Wonder how it got to Russia??

What an adventure it would be: Fly to Moscow.  Get the car.  Drive it to Vladivostok.  Ship it to the U.S. west coast.   :fastcar:

I would not be going to russia, as much fun as that might sound lol no thanks. It would be shipped to me. Im looking forward to it if i can get the car at all. If not this will end up a dead topic lol.
