is that a pinto?!    :lol:

 

Yes it's a Ford Pinto. The wagon version looked really badass.

 

It wasn't a garbage car by any means, although the reputation may believe you to believe so. It could catch fire in an accident, but that could happen to any car to be honest.

 

And the fact that it isn't garbage is evident because his still runs and drives :)

Alrighty will do lol it maybe it is the 5.3L lol still a ballsy truck

 

Is it a 1500 or 2500? The picture shows a 2500.

 

And the 5.3 actually had a considerable hp increase over the 5.7, although the availability of parts to build a 5.7/350 is pretty much unlimited.

 

And I'll be doing some off roading myself this spring. I have a spot that's about 100 acres of rocks, mud, puddles, cliffs and such that i'll be visiting as soon as winter ends.

I agree that it looks bad ass, good car imo, they just had a poorly placed fuel tank. Apparently that was the only flaw, still amazing that they didn't attempt to fix such a simple problem considering all the law suits.

buy American. Everything else is junk

 

There's no need to be a jerk about it. I prefer GM myself, but I'm not bashing anyone else's car.

 

Realize this is a GLOBAL community, and American cars aren't readily available throughout the world. Not to mention all vehicles have their faults, regardless of make and model.

Furthermore, a lot of the parts in GM vehicles, and all USA-domestic vehicles for that matter is outsourced to foreign countries anyways.

 

Every post from you since you "came back" so far that I've read has been completely retarded, offensive, spam, or all of the above. Try to contribute something positive for a change.

Sold the 66 mustang and upgraded.

Are both differentials functional? AWD or 4 wheel drive? Was all the new shit retrofitted or was another vehicles chassis used in the conversion? And if the latter, what chassis was used? S10 would be my guess...

It was a joke. I doubt a pt cruiser has enough power to make a good off road vehicle. I also doubt anyone who would lift a pt cruiser would bother to install 4wd. Chances are whoever owns this car left it fwd.

Well I sir, am not laughing! People will lift anything they can, and in the picture you can see a front and rear differential.

I apologize if I offended you. I only saw the front diff, but you're right.

 

Wait...You seriously thought I sold my 1966 mustang for a PT cruiser?
