Pinto Car Club of America

  Went to a old boys house today with a pinto parked out front, got to BS with the oldtimer to see if he wanted to sell it, he said it was a 71 sportsman model. I dont recall that model , it has the chrome strips running down the hatchback like the old chevy nomads.
 I like the car cause it has the finder and hood I need. He wants a $100.00 for it. The best part he has 2 seats reupholster for it and has not put them in.
 do you guys think this is a deal or what. can a person put the small bumpers on a 74 model.  thanks

for 100 bucks can you really go wrong? I would snap that up for sure!

Definitely go for it!

You may not want to part it out, though...this may be a rare(r) trim package well worth completing the restoration on.

 ;D not to take up the deal but if you don't get it , where do you live? Chevy

Washington, the one on the west coast!

I bought a 1971 new through the military Post Exchange, had it delievered to me in England.  I had what you are describing.  It was called a SPORT RUN ABOUT, HAD THE CHROME STRIPS ON THE BACK.  SEE IF I CAN FIND A PIC AND POST IT...

   I bought the hatchback but just havent gotten it home yet. it's just going to be a parts car. Way to much rust for a rookie bodyman like me to tackle. I'll post a pic when  I get some film done.
