Hi Ahsoka!


Welcome aboard!


I've got an orange '74 Pinto Runabout too!  Actually, my very first car when I was sixteen, way back in 1974, was a brand new orange Pinto Runabout.  Like an idiot, I traded it off in 1976 and then spent 20+ years searching for another just like it.  Enjoy!!!


Dwayne :)

I had an orange 77 hatchback and I am using an orange 80 hatchback for a Pinto-Mustang project I have been posting about for a couple of years now.  I must have a "thing" for orange Pintos!

What was done on the quarter panel?

This has been covered several times on this forum. Just do a search. There are some rims from other cars that fit just right in 14 n 15 that are 4 lug just have to get the correct back spacing. Here is a picture of someone who used a 91 mustang 16in rims 4 lug not sure on the back spacing specs(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20211129/05b7c1292debbc187e652ce3a0e62bba.jpg)
