My first car '73 Wagon
« on: January 16, 2017, 07:08:34 PM »
In 2013, my stepfather got me my first car. 1973 Pinto wagon! Now, all gutted, body work, and even a 2.3 SVO engine going in. Just wanted to share a couple pics I took today.

ps. I need a solid hood and a passenger side fender if anyone know anything

You might want to take a look at my '73 Wagon/Turbo Coupe build. Part 1 has a link to Part 2 at the end. There are a lot of little things involved that are helpful to know. There are some other good Turbo Pinto build projects here as well. 65 Shelby Clone has one currently going on. All the best. If looking for parts it is helpful to note your location. People are more incline to respond if a sale has a close proximity and seems feasible.   Lastly a Turbo Pinto can be a very fast car. It commands proper respect when driven.
