“.......we were abandoned by detroit!........... they gave us Pintos & Vegas!.....”


Admittedly Detroit and insurance companies had closed the door on factory performance cars, but they did provide fodder for the street racers. Here is what I was driving in the 70’s.



The Pinto had a hot dog 302 C4 and 9” and the Vega truck (a long story that involved a hack saw and 12 pack of beer) had a 327, Tri-Power and 4 speed.

Ya make the best of what you have.
