gday, i live in NewZealand and we have virtually no ford pinto's here, can any one tell me if the merthmobile on wayne's world (one and two) is a ford pinto, and if it is what year, cheers
ps while ford pinto's seem very nice im still a holden fan GO HOLDEN!!
Nope, it's not a pinto. It's an AMC (American Motors Corp). Pacer. I'm not sure if they sent any pacers down your way, but I think that there were AMC AMXs (right hand drive, I believe) sold in Australia.
If you google.com for amc pacer, I'm sure you'll find alot more info. The AMC fans have a good online presence.
The site you need to vist is Jeni Panhorst's site,
http://www.amcpacer.com (http://www.amcpacer.com)
Jeni is partnering with FordPinto.com, we're working on an angle to bring all of us old car sites together in some kind of ring..
Cheers you guys are legends
i'll head off to that site then. I'd like to do up an AMC pacer like the merth mobile,
thanks again soo much, catcha later
Hey Scott,
That's pretty cool. You know that I got a "thing" for VW buses, but I also like AMC's too. I had forgotten about Jeni's page, but it's really looking good since the last time I surfed thru.
If you haven't figured it out yet, I guess I love old cars of all makes and models :)
when i was in high school, in the late 90s. they raffled off or just had a drawing and gave the pacer from the waynes world movies away. and some one in my home town of la grande oregon won it! it was a pretty big deal then, in a town of like 10 thousand people. they gave it away in front of the theater, when waynes world 2 came out. im pretty sure some college kid won it and just thrashed the crap out of it. it might still be in those parts of the country.
