Wow! I realize the car was optioned out, but the Pinto had increased in price a lot by 1975. I thought our high inflation came later. Quite a change from when the car started out at a little over $2000.

That sticker indicates a Runabout with just about every option you could buy except air conditioning and automatic transmission! Definitely NOT your run-of-the-mill Pinto! I bought a 1974 Runabout new that was equipped essentially the same but did not have the Sport Appearance Package or sunroof. If memory serves me correctly, it stickered for just under $3300 (that window sticker is long gone) but I bought it for $2900 straight out, no trade. Hard to imagine buying a brand new car for that paltry sum but I have some old Saturday Evening Posts from 1947 that advertise a new Plymouth Special Deluxe for less than $900. How times have changed! My current car and pickup truck stickered for $63810 and $64980 respectively. That would have seemed unfathomable in 1974!

If you notice at the bottom (in the blue area) there is a list of the car models Ford sells. What is an "Elite?" I completely recall all the other cars listed but have never heard of an Elite. That said it is odd that they list "Ford" as though it is a model (not a brand) too.
