You could get a Pinto for HER. That would put you in the same situation that I am in: Her car gets all the good parts.

No, so I stopped that.

She now buys the stuff she wants, I just have to install it; YES, she marks it to know what stuff is her's.

ROFLMAO... sorry Bill, couldn't help it  ;)

for me... having more than 1 is great! but have to admit it's expensive to maintain and fix em' up.

my new motto... buy better cars! then I don't have to fix and maintain quite as much  ;D

No 1 Pinto isn't enough! I would love to have another one, but then again I don't have enough money for one... :'(

I say get them wail the getting good.  (aka there still some left for sale)

i bout a 73 on a whim and decided i dint want it so i asked the wife if she wanted it or should i sell it. she said she wouldn't mind so she put it in her name and we were trading off driving it as fuel efficient car. the more she drove it the more i would here "take ur own car" so as im trying to not drive the 74 till its done i bought 2 more!!!

now we have five (or will it be six this weekend?)

One is not enough. I have two Cruising Wagons and a Bobcat HB right now. I'll probably get rid of one of the wagons and want to buy a regular Pinto HB, the Orange Crush one of the classified ads is just killing me, so is the one in Kentucky. I like these cars enough to have more than one, and my wife doesn't mind. They aren't expensive, and other than welding, I can do most if not all of the work myself, which keeps me home and out of trouble. Plus, we met while I was driving my original Cruising Wagon, so she supports the restoration idea on that one. ;)

there's a woody wagon sitting in a lot about a mile from my house that is covered in weeds;  here in so-cal.  don't know what year or the condition.  i haven't been able to get close enough.  another '74 (i think) woody wagon right up the street (about 100 yds) from me that runs and is used occasionally that is owned by a rather eccentric woman.
