I know a person who had a used Pinto in the San Francisco area. It had
that stupid looking kit that made the front look like a Rolls Royce!!!
It got stolen in the city, she called the cops, they got there and she
was crying, cop asks her for a description, after she gives the
description he asks "why are you crying?"!!!!

------------------------------

I didn't have it long but as I recall, it wasn't really a bad car.
It was new, cheap and all I could really afford at the time. Got me,
my wife, infant daughter and two other Navy guys who needed a ride
home from IL to MA. Then onto Bayonne, NJ for transport to Puerto
Rico.

That was before they realized that they tended to blow up when hit
from behind.


Oh, she put a BUNCH of miles on that thing! It really was reliable.


My most unlikely car was a 71 Gremlin. I didn't buy it, I got it for
free but I ended up putting 50,000 miles on it and selling it for
$500.


Yeah, had an aquaintence in the town I lived in that bought a Gremlin
brand new. He traded it in for one of those AMC cars that looked like a
bubble.

It really wasn't that horrible for a free car.
All of those AMC 6's had a bad habit of fouling the #5 plug. I got to
the point that I would just swap it out and clean it. I had several in
the glove box and I could do it at a long light. I really only did
that once on a bet but I had the money in my wallet when the light
changed. (Rt 5 and Camp Springs Road, a really oppressive light)
