New Member in need of parts
« on: January 05, 2004, 09:41:20 PM »
Hey all, I've just joined this site. Been a Pinto owner now for almost a year but I need a few parts.

I need new headlight buckets and bezels for a 79-80. Plus any other parts I could get my hands on. Right now I'm just working on restoring the body and ending up with the interior probably after I get back from tech school. I was lucky enough to find a junked pinto to rip a fender off of, but no luck with front bezels and grille.

Any and all help with parts available, or maybe places around the country that have parts, or might have parts. Reply or email me at dark_w0lf_2k1@yahoo.com

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.

If you have a "Pick your Part" or equivalent in your area, it's a good place to check every 2 weeks or so.   Leave your tools in the car, check all Ford rows, then bring in the tools if you find something.

If you ever get down to KC from Omaha, check out U-Wrench It at I-435 and Truman Road (HWY 24?). That's on the east side of the I-435 loop a couple miles north of the I-70/I-435 fiasco.

Have no clue what's in their yard right now, but I used to go there about 3 times a week when I lived in KC. Only costs $1 to get in.
I left my Pinto in front of my house last night. This morning there were two more left with it.
