1975 Ford Pinto Runabout Project

Description

Found this 1975 Pinto in an ad on Kijiji. It was rotting in a field, and was listed at $600. Could it be fixed? We used to own a 1973 Pinto when I was a child, so I have always been pretty nostalgic about the car. After spending about 3 months in a string of autobody shops, the car is now in pretty nice shape. Frame had to be straightened, as well as rust repair, paint, bushings, bearings, brakes, hoses, tires, hubcaps and trim. I know most people restore cars with slightly better reputations, but I have always had a thing for this poor underdog. Surprisingly, no work was done to the engine, and it runs great!
