The pinto dashboard and steering wheel


This is the pinto dashboard and steering wheel before I began work on it. It is in excellent shape considering the car is about 36 years old. As you can see in the previous posts the car was relatively rust free. The carpet came out is pieces as it had gotten wet many times from a leaky windshield and and drivers side air vent.

  2. The Pinto was a much maligned car, but I drove mine 75,000 miles, up Pike's Peak, through the wilds of Canada, and non stop from Chicago to Jacksonville once. It was a decent little car.
    This one looks like it had AC, which couldn't help that 2,300cc engine's power output.
