Ford pinto Know to explode when hit it the rear Man did they build crap back then
not to stray too far off topic, although the pinto was before my time, i wonder if it was really that unsafe or if it was just the victim of media hype.
Here is a excerpt from wikipedia:
The Pinto’s legacy was affected by media controversy and legal cases surrounding the safety of its gas tank design; a recall of the car in 1978; and a later study examining actual incident data that concluded the Pinto was as safe as, or safer than, other cars in its class.[6]

i’d hate to think that the general public is so weak minded that they would believe everything they see on t.v… even if they were images of flaming pinto’s, there are a lot of factors to consider before blindly concluding that all pintos are flaming death traps.
anywhoo, stingray66 i would love to take a guess at your car, but your image has failed to load. either that or google chrome is making me look really stupid right now.
[quote=”johnzcarz” post=38368]Here’s one of my all-time favorites..from when sports cars were sports cars.
Alfa romeo spider 🙂
Sports cars still exist, they are just not of US heritage that often(new corvettes maybe, vipers no).
Neither. It is German.
Also, in regards to the red sports car that was posted earlier, it is an Alfa Romeo Spider, however, Italy is not between Germany and England…

My bad on the geography lesson!
[quote=”Nogood” post=40115]I have a fun one for you
I will say as much as although it is red, it is not a mustang ;).[/quote]
Lamborghini LM002
There are a special group of enthusiasts out there who might be able to guess this type of vehicle just based on the engine…

wow, I was right about manufacture…but maybe a 1300? I am not keen on german made cars since I am not a fan of them. I am keen on 70’s to presant day domestics and japanese cars..but this is a fun game!
