Hey folks!
Don't know if you noticed or not... a new listing on eBay for a 1976 MPG sedan, 2300 cc, AT, garage kept, 12,916 actual miles. Silver with blue interior. Not perfect but VERY nice. It's in Hagarstown, Maryland and has a Buy it Now price of $5000. Do not know what the reserve might be. It's not what I want (I'm still hunting for a solid orange '74 Runabout with a manual transmission) but it's so close by that I'm tempted to drive up and check it out anyway. I suppose there are worse things in this world than having an automatic transmission when you have your heart set on a manual. I'm just afraid that if I buy something like this, I'll get complacent and never find the Pinto I actually want - plus I have always hated silver and the car is simply too nice to repaint just to facilitate a color change. It would be nice, though, if somebody here latches onto her. Happy New Year!!!
Just looked....that is a very nice car. Based on my taste and experience, I believe it is worth the Buy It Now price. You would have to put a lot more money than that into a car you picked up for a couple thousand that needed work.

Somebody snagged it for the Buy It Now price. They bought themselves a very nice car. I hope they bring it to fordpinto.com for us all to enjoy!
