As a fairly new member I devoted a little time to read most of the posts. What an enthusiastic club!!! I read somewhere that a member named Don has a Pinto with only 450 miles on it. Does anyone know about the car and where it is? That sounds like a pretty special car and I am sure we would all like to hear more about it. Can anyone fill us in? Thanks
It's Dave (origional74) and he's in Tulsa, OK
He has a couple sweet rides...
A privledged few of us have seen it.Come to the Tulsa meet and I am sure he will be glad to show Jade off.

Thanks guys for the good information. I contacted Dave and now we are comparing notes on his beauty and my own '75 coupe with 609 original miles. Someday maybe we can get them side by side at the same meet as we are not too far apart. I can't wait!
609 miles...amazing. Would love to hear the story of how
this car was driven so little.

Yes, as a new member, i agree. i was impressed at the enthusiasm here. my 40K pinto was a capsule too. unfortunately it was enclosed in a musty garage. not exactly the 'new car' smell i was lookng for. LOL
at least it's better than mouse turds like the old trucks i buy.
original paint shows it's agea bit, but still looks better than the 7 year old cars i owned 30 year ago! crossy
Thanks for the compliments guys. As Gordie said, we have exchanged a few PM's in the past few days. I think it would be awesome to have these 2 cars side by side. I would love to see his '75. He said he was going to drop a v8 into it! NOT! Just kidding.
I am sure we will find a lower mile car than ours some day. I would just love to start driving Jade but I know what the Oklahome weather does to them, 6 years max. I am content with keeping the miles off of her, plenty of other Pinto's to drive and enjoy.
Y'all get registered and get down to this Central meet in just over a month!
