Greetings all ...
What does the collective interest in the "classic Pinto" mean in the automotive universe? Does anyone subscribe to the theory of parallel universes and infinite possibilities?
Did the outright arrogance of FoMoCo and Mr Iaccoca , lay the foundation for a cause /effect ripple in the time space continuum? Are we really awake and enjoying our retro hobby, or is this a Matrix style reality?
If you can find the mental clarity to explore these possibilities, hop in your time machine, lean back , look at the dash and dream.
If you find it totally implausible, well, you haven't had enough to drink! Or you could be infected with a new strain of mental constipation related to Cranial Rectosis. Don't worry, Hillary will save us all from ourselves, or Obama can show us the way.
Cause and Effect, it is reality, you determine the possibilities...

You can lament the past and contemplate the future but....DANG...I LIKE MY PINTO NOW!! :lol:
My Pinto blowed up real good! :amazed:
No it didn't. Me just need sleep.... :P
hey pintosopher---
care to share with the rest of us whatever your on right now? ;D :D ;) ;)
In my defense, I wasn't on any Illegal substances. It all started with a Terminator DVD marathon, then a break in the time/temporal rift told me to get real ( Wife) !
So I went to the garage, after slipping into my old nomex firesuit, helmet and gear, grabbed a 5 gallon jug of Unocal 110 racing fuel , inhaled a big snort, and crawled behind the wheel of my '72. Laptop in hand, I waited for inspiration. Later, after hearing the wail of a racing Ford , I realized that my wife had dragged me out of the car, given me a serious wedgie, and was about to initiate a final warning with a set of live jumper cables. This is a temporary condition that usually occurs in February after too much rain and watching the Speedweeks at Daytona.

Answer....The Classic Pinto represents the epitome of the term "a car", "the car" or best yet "my car". When fuel prices were rising and economy was the buzz word The Pinto was the answer.
Huh,through all this I forgot the question. :lost:
Futhermore, I don't really think of my Pinto endeavors as a retro-Hobby although I do like the context in which you implemented the term time machine. My Pinto may very well be my fountain of yute. Hmmmmmm....retro Matrix?
This is why I have put together a special CD containing my personal choices of High Energy Rock and Roll Fusion to counter act the energy that gets into "my car" with me and keeps us from crashing.
I need to retro a sound system in there.

Hmm, Time machines , Rock and roll energy, forces of nature... We may have stumbled on a clue to the origins of the universe! There is no Big Bang theory, only Pinto explosions that would cause a disturbance in the fabric of existence ( I hereby recant bovine flatulence as a force of nature) .
What other possibilities could explain this illogical influence on so much of the automotive Karma? Does anything else explain the condition Academus Rejectus Statusnosis in the general Pinto ownership population. They say the universe has a built in disk defrag program, could our very existence be a precursor to a automotive "Reboot" ?
I say Control Alt Esc and have at it!
Oops, ahh, at least Open wheel lunacy is redeemed... Hmmm, What will Champ car do with all those Cosworth V8's? Pinto XD anyone!

All hail the mighty 8Track, bringer of classic rock energy. Tunes by which one shall bang thy head,not thy brother.
Inner peace brought to the masses by the limited space encompassed by the most popular of subcompacts.
The high energy rock, bringing back the years of yore. The memories causing a euphoria, unike that of any drug, legal, or not.
Ok my meds are wearing off. I gotta have another pill.......
