1973 Pinto Pangra - anyone remember it?
Permalink  
 


Saw this on the MNautoX forum, and thought maybe someone here might remember seeing this car around the cities area in the mid-70s.


Interesting car... never heard of them before.

Bob Koske at Dune Buggy Supply may know the car or know who would.

Could try Minnesota Ford Enthusiasts. One of the guys on there Chris is a big Pinto fan, has a yellow turbo pinto he's building for strip driving.

Gotta say... never heard of a 'Pangra'?  headscratch

Always something new in the old car world.

I thought I remembered something about a body-kit for these and/or Bobcats.

Life is funny.  Things we could not appreciate or understand at the time, we find cool as hell as time goes by.
