1972 Ford Pinto 289 from North America
Summary:
Great with the new motor
Faults:
Engine died. Dead. Didn't know why, didn't care. Transplanted a stock 289 V8 and C4 automatic into it.
General Comments:
Transplant was fairly straight forward. Nothing that a wee bit 'o hammering couldn't fix. Absolutely stunning performance. In a straight line. Curves could be iffy at speed. But it was certainly a boulevard screamer. I still miss it. Nice little lozenge.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
