My new daily driver - 1973 Pinto Wagon

...I think I need another one too

 

I would like a runabout, but I have 3 projects right now

 

Milo was to be your daily (maybe) and how's Lucy and by the way how do you get any house work done , let alone or a

 

LOL I squeeze it in there. Lucy is sitting, and the Maverick mechanicals are almost done. One of the three have to go, tough decision! I dunno

I actually got the problem rain gutter done on Milo So doing OK. Actually finished cleaning my saddle to loan to someone also!

 

These were a problem with them coming up and inside was some type of plastic. I used a dremel to cut down the plastic piece and the rust in there then put on some putty with my finger and got it done. It's real close to paint, will probably start wet sanding tomorrow.

 

Oh good! So, you can prep my terrible gutters someday.

 

Just finished reading this thread-Nice work!! I bought a '74 Pinto Squire to use as a daily driver. The repairs are held up until I'm done hanging drywall my garage.

 

It's not hard. I found that I did the gutters wrong, so am redoing them. I am posting how it's done on the pinto forum when I get the materials - can do them here also.

I am a trader now, sold the Rambler so I could get a 1978 Mustang King Cobra II ;-) Oh well, can't do more than 3 cars

 

Love these little cars! Good on gas and get utilitarian vehicle!

 

You sold the RAMBLER ? The bondo dust and paint fumes must have gotten to you!

 

I couldn't resist the King Cobra

 

Where's Lucy what a sweet ride and what's a King Cobar 78 ? . Really your only messin with us about Lucy hey the must be a thing you guys do about this time of year besides going for a or a

 

It's a Mustang. They only ever made 4,900 of them ever. Here is what it used to look like:



This is what I'm going to have it look like in Pearl white and pearl blue stripes. I can't have more than 3 cars and a bike The air dam is different, but like a cobra. It's a 5.0 and when done should have close to 400hp I still have a need for speed!



Hey I still have Milo for a wagon

 

I'm Sorry to hear you sold the Rambler, but the 78 COBRA is a wicked car and I am definitely jealous. Congrats on the purchase. Make sure you finish Milo before tearing into the Mustang.

 

Thanks and I still have my wagon, all blacked out windows in the back now. They go in today anyway Should look pretty cool

Milo will be painted by end of November The Maverick paint is next inside and out and then I'll do the Cobra!
