V8 Pinto on Ebay!
I Thought This was Interesting & Grabbed a Few Shots As Link Won't Last Very Long!
Me Thinks Rear Spoiler Would Lift Rear at Speed!
Also With Traction Being a Premium And All the Perf Parts it's Running an Open Diff!
Asking 25K OBO!

Enjoy,

Just what the doctor ordered, a potential death trap with a V8... Just hope it never gets rear ended during a potential collision!

I'd still feel safer in that Pinto than my '74 Lotus Europa!

Why a Pinto when the Mavericks of that era had a 302 for the Grabbers? You could make that 302 as fast as you wanted and it belonged in the car. I wouldn't be interested in that Pinto for $5. Nothing but a money pit.

Very good point, Paul 
Personally, in my honest opinion, the Mustang II should've been built on the Maverick/Comet platform over the Pinto platform, where the 302 belonged for the Maverick Grabbers from the very start...
Also, the Maverick platform replaced the original Falcon platform, for which the 1st generation 65-68 Mustang was originally based.
