  1973 FORD PINTO WAGON NICE CLEAN SURVIVOR READY TO RESTORE OR PLAY WITH! IT HAS BEEN IN STORAGE FOR SOME TIME & IS NOT QUITE A DAILY DRIVER, BUT IT WILL NOT TAKE MUCH TO MAKE IT ONE. OVERALL A VERY NICE & CLEAN CAR! MECHANICALLY ACTUALLY IN GOOD SHAPE. I'M SURE IT WOULDN'T HURT TO RUN SOME FRESH GAS THROUGH IT, IT'S A LITTLE COLD BLOODED, BUT THE ORIGINAL LITTLE 2 LITER 4 CYLINDER ENGINE ACTUALLY RUNS GREAT! WHEN SHE WARMS UP IT IS SMOOTH & PEPPY! THE 4 SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION SHIFTS GREAT TOO. SOLID SHIFTS WITH NO SLIPPING. WILL MAKE SOMEONE AN EZ RESTORATION OR JUST A FUN DAILY DRIVER WITHOUT MUCH WORK AT ALL. FRONT END, GRILLS, FRONT BUMPER, ETC. ARE ALL VERY NICE! STRAIGHT & CLEAN! THE BODY & PAINT JOB HAS SOME CHIPS & BLEMS HERE & THERE, BUT IS OVERALL VERY NICE LOOKING. IT WOULD CERTAINLY LOOK FINE FOR A DAILY DRIVER. MOST IMPORTANTLY, ALTHOUGH THERE ARE SOME AREAS WITH SOME SURFACE RUST WHERE THE PAINT IS CHIPPED, IT HAS NO ADVANCED RUST PROBLEMS AT ALL. LIKE MOST OF OUR CARS, WE HAVE HAD THIS CAR UP ON A HOIST & LOOKED IT OVER THOROUGHLY & IT IS SOLID THROUGHOUT. OTHERWISE, HERE ARE THE PARTICULARS: VIN: 3R12X20665 ODOMETER READING: 89999 I WOULD ASSUME BASED ON AGE & OVERALL CONDITION THAT IT IS PROBABLY 90K ORIGINAL. BUT WE DO NOT GET SECURE ODOMETER STATEMENTS ON CARS OLDER THAN 10 YEARS, SO LIKE ALL OF OUR VEHICLES 10 YEARS & OLDER IT IS BEING SOLD AS:MILES EXEMPT. BODY: SUPER NICE! STRAIGHT & SOLID. ALL GLASS IS GOOD. THIS IS THE NICEST ONE WE'VE SEEN IN A VERY LONG TIME! STRAIGHT, CLEAN & SOLID! TAILLIGHTS & TAILGATE LOOK OVERALL NICE. STRAIGHT & SOLID. REAR BUMPER HAS SOME SCRATCHES IN THE CHROME, BUT LOOKS NICE & STRAIGHT & WOULD CLEAN UP EASILY ENOUGH. YOU CAN GET A GOOD IDEA ...OF JUST HOW AMAZINGLY STRAIGHT IT IS ESPECIALLY FOR A 40 YEAR OLD CAR BY.... LOOKING DOWN THE SIDES IN THESE PICTURES. SUPER NICE & CLEAN SET OF ORIGINAL FACTORY WHEEL COVERS. ALSO HAS A GOOD SET OF RADIAL TIRES. WITH APPROX 60-70% TREAD LIFE REMAINING ON ALL 4. INTERIOR: DASH PAD HAS THE TYPICAL CRACKS & WOULD BENEFIT FROM HAVING A NEW DASH PAD INSTALLED. OR IT WOULD LOOK FINE WITH A DASH COVER. THE FACTORY GAUGES ARE IN VERY NICE SHAPE. HAS AN AFTERMARKET SET OF GAUGES FOR OIL PRESSURE, VOLTS & WATER TEMP. OIL PRESSURE WORKS GREAT & SHOWS EXCELLENT PRESSURE WHEN IT'S RUNNING. OTHER 2 GAUGES NEED TO BE HOOKED UP. THE FRONT BUCKET SEAT CUSHIONS ARE IN NICE SHAPE, BUT THE BOTTOM CUSHIONS NEED SOME UPHOLSTERY WORK & ALTHOUGH THE CARPETING IS CERTAINLY USEABLE AS IS, IT IS TIRED & READY TO BE REPLACED. WE CAN GET BOTH OF THESE THINGS DONE PROFESSIONALLY FOR THE BUYER AT OUR WHOLESALE COST IF DESIRED. REAR SEATS & SIDE PANELS OVERALL LOOK VERY GOOD. HEADLINER HAS A COUPLE TEARS THAT COULD BE STITCHED UP BUT OVERALL IN GOOD SHAPE. VISORS LOOK GOOD. THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR PANEL HAS A TEAR THAT THEY HELD IN PLACE WITH A PIECE OF TAPE, AS SEEN ABOVE & CERTAINLY COULD BE DEALT WITH IN A LESS OBVIOUS WAY. =) OTHERWISE LOOKS TO BE IN VERY NICE SHAPE. THE PASSENGER SIDE LOOKS VERY GOOD. VIEW OF THE PASSENGER SIDE FRONT. VIEW OF THE PASSENGER SIDE REAR. CARGO AREA IS IN EXCELLENT SHAPE. SOLID & DRY. THE 4 CYLINDER 2.0 LITER RUNS GOOD. VERY SMOOTH, QUIET & PEPPY! BUT AS WE MENTIONED BEFORE, A FRESH TUNEUP, SOME FRESH FUEL & REGULAR USE WILL DO IT A WORLD OF GOOD! SINCE IT HAS BEEN SITTING, IT WOULD BE A GOOD IDEA TO BREAK IT BACK IN WITH SMALLER TRIPS AT FIRST UNTIL IT GETS USED TO BEING DRIVEN AGAIN, BUT IF YOU'RE FEELING REALLY ADVENTUROUS & YOU WANT TO DRIVE IT HOME 3000+ MILES, WELL!... WE ALWAYS SUGGEST A FRESH TUNEUP & OIL CHANGE BEFORE DRIVING CARS LONG DISTANCES. BUT WE WOULD BE HAPPY TO HELP YOU ARRANGE GETTING ANY PRETRIP PREP WORK DONE AT OUR WHOLESALE COST. =) MECHANICAL: SIZE: 122ci / 2.0 LITER 4 CYLINDER REALLY RUNS SMOOTH TRANSMISSION: TYPE: MANUAL. SHIFTS NICE & CLUTCH FEELS GOOD. BRAKES TYPE: HYDRAULIC CONDITION: THEY WORK, BUT SHOULD BE CHECKED BEFORE DRIVING ANY DISTANCE. SINCE IT HAS BEEN SITTING. STEERING: CONDITION: NICE & TIGHT! VERY SMOOTH & RESPONSIVE! TIRES STEEL RADIALS. CONDITION: GOOD. ABOUT 60-70% TREAD LEFT. EXHAUST: GOOD CONDITION. SMOOTH & QUIET. NICE LITTLE CAR! JUST NEEDS A GOOD NEW HOME THAT CAN LOVE IT!
