  Cool find, especially at this price!

  The Pinto version is much closer to what the original was. The VW based ones leave me cold.

  Moved to the fastest run group so I can drive "flat out"

  I could definitely live with a Pinto powered one.

  This probably ought to be posted over on the GRM forum, but think of the small block Ford potential!

  Salvage? Why not sell it or swap it? Oy.
  

  Nice find!
