    Welcome. But, a Pinto? WAY off topic here. WAY WAY OFF
     
  3. Welcome Pintopanel ... yep that lil' pony isnt much of a topic of conversation at this site but just for clarity explain to me why would that "off topic" wagon be refered to as a panel when, in fact, it is a modified wagon and tradionally should be called a "sedan delivery"? I have always refered to vehicles on truck frames as "panels".

    Have things changed over the years?

    As a fellow Viet Vet I heartily welcome you, from my 'point of view." Your Pinto looks great, off topic or not. Just hurry up and get to working on something pre 1964 so you'll really belong here and everyone will welcome you!

    Welcome Pintopanel, while your Pinto maybe an O/T car here, it's pretty nice (I have a soft spot for Pinto's myself).


    BTW. The is "sister" website to the HAMB http://www.dogfightmag.com/forum/ There are alot of people from the HAMB there also where you can talk about O/T cars like our Pinto's

    My response to your Pinto was not in any way meant as a negative. I simply wanted to bring to your attention the pre-64 rule here. Yes, it is a darn nice looking, and unusual, but it is still off topic. Heck, I had a Corvette with a ZL-1 under the hood, but it too way off topic. 1968.
    Hey, I did start off with "Welcome"!!
    Forgive? (smiling)
