i like it alot but i think it would look even better if it was black and had a set of old school bronze riken mesh wheels.

Got anymore pics of under the hood and rear shots and what not?

the front spoiler is a mustang II turned
upside down with brackets made to make
it fit with a bmw bumper
the back is a pontiac front valance modified
to fit with a pontiac rear bumper
the rear fender flares are a 944 porsche
and the rest is custom hand made
very unquie
still working on it
but it draws attention
the only one in the world like it

notice the custom cowl hood has
the hump in the middle just like a
real pinto hood
most people do not notice that
bet you can not find a hood like
this nowhere

I thought ricing out Pintos was illegal lmao... J?K.. That actually looks really good. That's what I like about out cars, you can make just about everything work.
