Hey guys, been absent for quite a while, and am very busy with the new baby and all, but something happened the other day that I can still hardly believe.
I have obtained a 1980 ESS Pinto, in exceptionally great shape, and have the original title issued for the car in my hand. Has 81,XXX miles on it, and the inside looks like no one has ever even set in the seats! I should have pics available tomorrow.
More info to come, I will narrate the pics. I have finally found the unicorn.......

What is a ESS Pinto???
ESS stood for European Sports Sedan, and was offered in 1979 and 1980. Availble on sedans and runabouts, it was a black grill, interior accents, black glass third door, wide black bodyside trim and sports equipment. The package was changed slighlty for 1980, I think, 1980 added an ESS insignia and black window frames and a few other changes I cant remember.
Man, I have been trying to post pics for two days now, and have had no luck, but lets try this again.............
Awesome!! It worked! Man, I have been gone so long that I can't even remember how to get half this stuff to work. Any way, here are some more pics that I got resized, as soon as I get it out of the garage and cleaned up there will be some more to come!
And here is what has been occupying my time......... Won't be long and I will have to find her a Pinto!!
What a great Pinto... and what a cutie your baby is! ;D
Thanks! ;D
Got it running tonight, just need to find a timing belt guide for the crankshaft, (going junkyard hunting tomorrow), put the radiator back in, drain the gas tank, and it is pretty much ready to go! WOO HOOOOO!!!!
Awsome man!
