I like ur Pinto Squire dude. they have always been my favourite version of the pinto because the pinto hatchback isn't so safe with the gas tank in front of the bumper. one question 4 u though. is the gas tank in the same spot at the rear bumper like the hatchback version? let me know because I've been trying to find out if it's different or the same it's not often that I get to ask the owner of a pinto. 5tars*****.

Nice sleeper. I'm working on putting a 2.3T in my 99 ranger. I think you've convinced me to leave my stock wheels and toolbox on it. Thanks for the inspiration!

You're a sick man. I love the economically efficient path to performance you've got there. Kick ass.
p.s. hope that battey is secure back there... Derek

Man your Pinto is great. Owning a 2.3T myself I know that thing is going to fly with the new turbo. Love the hub caps but I must say the Corona box is the best mod. I love it. Nice work!
