Here are a couple links for more info on the last two pictures.  Is the first picture pre-restoration?

This C/D Pinto is the reason I built my turbo back in 78. Nothing could touch it in the corners...but it lacked the HP down the straightaway. The turbo fixed the HP issues!  ;D  and racer walsh provide the handling improvements! :)
BTW...thks for the link!

I saw that one about a week ago. Nice looking car. Certainly dont know about it being worth that much. One of the famous drag racing pintos went a while ago on a real auction sale and went for around $16,000 Would much rather have that personally! But we have different likes so hey! LOL>
