Your other cars??

Wish I had that 67 Ranchero! Best looking of all the mid series models IMHO!

We have a 93 Mustang LX convertible with GT tail lights, a 84 F 150 4X4 stepside, a 82 F 100 stepside, a 99 Ranger, a 99 F 150 XLT extended cab, and a 87 E 350 Fleetwood Tioga motorhome. Oh, I almost forgot, a 2002 International 9900i that I make my living with.

 

Cool Pinto!!...stock, or V8??

 

It's a stock 2.0 4-Speed. I really love driving it. I am thinking about putting a 2.3 and 5-Speed in it with header and ported head. I have a 4 lug Pinto 8" rear that will go in nicely too. Maybe 4.30 gears to go with the T-5

It is actually pretty quick for a stock Pinto. I defeated an auto 200 or 250 Six Maverick in a race about a year ago and it wasn't even close.
All I did was advance the timing and fiddle with the carb and it runs pretty hard now.

 

Yeah, I just sold this clean Pinto a few months ago. Its a 71 Runabout with 2.0 & 4 speed, even had working AC!!


My blue Pinto has a 2.3 turbo with C4 trans and 8" inch rear with 4:11 gears and rear disc brakes. Im still fiddling with it here and there, but its already made 405 HP at the wheels and it was popping & sputtering when it did that!!
Theres more left in it for sure.

 

Its an Esslinger aluminum D-port.

Looks like a 66 Cadd sedan de ville. My first car. Should have kept it.

 

You guys make me nuts. I get hassled over one car as a toy. LOL. Enjoy those cars boys. Especially those early Torinos. I will have one someday.

 

Hassled by who?

The law/city? ......I moved to the country and bought a house with some land

Parents?.....Been there. I grew up, now I'm a parent, and give myself permission to collect all the cars and parts I want

Wife?.....I married a hot blonde who drove a red 67 Mustang, loved to ride shotgun when I used to street race, loves car shows and swap meets, and will even dive in and get greasy on a project with me.

My '77 Maverick - a work in progress:



The family's '69 Camaro SS 396/4-speed - unrestored

 

what turbo is that? or maybe just post up a pic of the compressor side

heres the other project cars:

1995 Thunderbird LX 4.6L auto, picked it up for $600. Swapped out the front bumper cover, and added the missing emblems. Also an air silencer deleted mod. Pretty much the Daily Driver






1966 Falcon Futura 2dr, it was actually a factory 289 car but a previous owner swapped it out for a 200. it still has the V8 goodies like 5 lug drums, and a 8" rear end. It's getting a paint job right now.

 

Thats one nice camaro!, nice maverick too.
