So ugly, it's cute. A true disposable car, they used to be everywhere on the roads. Now I can't remember the last time I saw one. 

I am aware of the model, but I've never seen one. Very cool.

Two friends of mine had Ford Pintos back in the 1970's, but it has been a long time since I have seen one.  The only model of a Pinto I remember was a 1/25 scale plastic kit in the 1970's.  I built the model for one of my friends.

I had a barfy yellow 74 Pinto with the 2.3 L engine....it was a great little commuter car.  Mind you I was never rear ended either.....

Galen.  I’ve seen this car many times, but never pulled the trigger. Would love to have one as I had a 1980 Pinto station wagon. Believe it or not it was a fun little car to drive.
