When I was a kid back in the 80s in grade school I went over my friend's grandmother's house in the backyard and there sat a Mustang with velocity Stacks protruding through the old ripped up tarp. It was my friend's uncle 's car who never made it home from Vietnam. God bless all the men and women who serve our country. They are the true heroes of America
Heroes of America for sure! The men and women that served in Vietnam never got the recognition they deserved. The ones that were fortunate enough to return home were not greeted with a warm welcome.
I’ve watched this video 32 times. I bought my Pinto because of this video. I’d love to see what the guy that owns it now has done to it. I would have driven it just like it is.
Definitely has that Bob Glidden Pro Stock look! One of the first projects I did as a teenager was putting a Chevy V-8 in a 71 Pinto! It was only completed enough to be a great burnout machine.
Yes! Bob Glidden was the first person I thought of when I saw this car. I'm sure this thing sat low in the front when it had an engine in it, so it probably had that killer Pro Stock look.
How cool to see this Pinto! I still have the 1971 Pinto that my dad bought new on December 16, 1970. In 1975 I put a 289 and c4 out of a 66 mustang in it. In 1977 I back halved it with a narrowed 9 inch and added a 302 with a tunnel ram and 2 -4bbl holleys. Hasn't been out of the garage in years.
Please don't paint it just clear coat it ! Keep it the way it is ! History !!!!!!! People will probably recognize that car and bring back alot of good memories !!!
It's a very buildable car (compared to some of the other stuff we drag in). The chassis is nice, and could very easily be raced with a couple of small updates.
A buddy of mine that went to the rival high school that I went to in the late eighties him and his father built a 73 pinto and put a V8 in it all off of the mustang cobras platforms at the time.. but they put a built 302 in it that was putting out almost 400 horsepower.. the kid drove it for about a year while he was in school and then I bought it from him for 500 bucks.. it kept twisting drive shafts out of it.. so I reconfigured the drivetrain and drive shaft after that it was a pretty good car hookd up pretty good... That I pulled the engine out of it and sold the body to somebody else
My sister had that car brand new in blue. The day my dad bought it from Dub shaw Ford in FT worth TEXAS, my sister witch was only 16 me and her left that day and drove it to Mitchell Indiana. Man the 70s were so cool. 🤠
I would love to be blessed with another Pinto. I had plans for my last one, but a flood washed it down our creek, and well, big rocks and fallen trees, end of my dreams. Great find.
This car brings back so many memorys if a guy in a pinto down in Vanburan and Ft, Smith Arkansas. This guy had one just like it and he put mustanges and lots of other folks who saw his car and joked about it till the race was over LOL.
It has gone to a new home. We brought in a couple of new projects last week. An '85 Chevy 4x4 truck and a '56 Ford. We like to rearrange the furniture around the shop lol.
Now that is a sweet car ! Thank you for sharing this with me ! Take care , stay safe and healthy with whatever your next project or adventure maybe ! Doing well here in Kansas .
Reminds me so much of my dads 68 Dodge Dart. It was the same cookie cutter type drag car as far as the tires and how it sit all the sheet metal and just being a shell basically. Had a wedge 440 with huge fender well headers with a 727 and Dana rear. I loved that car as a kid my mom accidentally sold it while my dad was at work haha. I wish I could find it. Literally my childhood in a car
My dad used to own a green Pinto when I was a kid and I love those car when you prepare them real good the body look good for raising .. i’m sure somebody’s gonna take it out of your hand real quick👍👍👍👌
That Pinto reminded me of some projects I helped out on back in the '70s. We took a '72 Pinto and crammed a 351 Windsor with a Borg Warner Super T-10 in it. Another was a '73 Vega with a 327 and Turbo 400. Then came the '63 Belvedere getting a 440 Magnum and 727 tranny. Plus my own rides, a '58 T-Bird with a 427 and C-6, and my V-8 Trike with a 390. People called us "Suicide Jockeys."
Pretty sweet little ride. Love to see it scream down the track again. Hopefully whoever gets it will give some props to Mr McKenzie’s racing past with the car 🤘🏼
Back in the early 80's I built a 71 Pinto wagon with a 289 HI.PO. with a automatic transmission 411 rear this was a street car she carried the front wheels through 2'nd gear not bragging but she was never beat I raced at least 6 races a week love to have it now wouldn't mind having this one you have
Wow man too coo! My first engine swap was a 71 pinto that me, my brother, and dad built back in 78. It had a 289 4bbl/ C4 and a Mustang II rear end. We cut out the fire wall and stuffed that little guy in there and welded it back in with new sheet metal. It almost fit under the stock hood but we had to make a little bump in the hood and man was that thing fast and handled like a dream. It would break em loose on a wet freeway at 60mph. My brother dailied that thing for years then I got it back from him and I kick myself now for letting that one go.
@@HotRodHoarder It was awesome, we drove it all over the Eastern Sierras around Susanville ca and down in San Jose. The Motor went in my next swap which was a 74 capri that ended up cammed with 2 Carter 500 cfm quads progressively linked and a T4 with the same mustang II rear end, custom suspension and taller 16in rubber. Full aero kit with a prosch style whale tale like we used to get from Dobi. And the loudest car stereo in Northern California and Nevada in 1986 133 db. with the 2nd Alpine 5900 CD player ever installed in a car. That car was insanely fast and almost killed me twice.
Heck yeah! Love the older Pintos! Regardless of their bad rep. That c6 is heavy. We ran modified c4s in our dirt track cars. Less weight, strong, and took less HP to run em. They held up quite well. Cool find. Thanks 👍
Yeah, I've heard it takes a TON of horsepower to turn a C6. But back then, they were probably running whatever would hold up without a tremendous amount of modifications.
I remember reading an article about building Pintos for racing. During the 70's Ford had a part number for a Pinto shell. All the sheet metal with doors but no glass, interior parts, or drivetrain.
Back in the late 70s, me and Keith bates built a 71 PINTO .WE completed a 71 GT FORD 351 CLEVELAND WITH A 4 SPEED INTO THE PINTO. This project was in COLORADO springs. Keith was in the MILITARY and transferred to HAWAII, he was a chopper pilot. Had to sell this car. Thanks
I thought they all burned up!!! There used to be Pintos EVERYWHERE for a time.. That is pretty much What a low budget funny car was like back then, There wars lots of air scoops buried in windshields because the 392 Hemi was a very popular motor for quarter mile cars in the 1960s-- There was no room in compact cars for huge motors, so you cut the fire wall and made room if needed. Me and some friends used to rip hemi motors out of old Imperials and Chryslers and scrap those huge bodies. The racers would pay good momney for a running 392!! We made a lot of beer money that way in high school!! Beer was less than $5.00 a case, + it seems to me that I got paid a case for every motor I helped to remove & we could do 5 or 6 a weekend!!! I was in heaven!!
Great candidate for Byron Wheelstand Competition or exhibition car! I like it and remember seeing cars like this compete in the 70s and 80s. Very cool piece.
I'm glad you wash it up . Then you can see what it really is . It would take a little work to bring it up-to-date but I think it's worth it . I'm glad you saved it
This is such cool little car! My brother used to have a ‘78 Pinto ESS with a V6 so I have a soft spot for these cars. FYI-currently there are short wheelbase 1/10 scale RC drag car bodies of Pintos that look really nice.
I had a Pinto hatchback which was an excellent car for 200 dollars. I was recycling pallets for money at the time and I fit 12 pallets in the back of that thing!! No lie. I never got pulled over.
Sometimes, we hang onto stuff (that's where the Hot Rod Hoarders name came from) but others, we like to put them back on the market so that someone can hopefully bring them back to life. We have too many projects as it is, so it's fun to find a good home for some of these cars.
I got a big block Chevy would look great in there or a Pontiac 400 or a olds 350. That thing would be so cool just to drive it! Apart from winds and obviously tires maybe chassis work I wouldn’t change a thing!! That thing is so badass I’m drooling 🤤 lol
Love seeing old cars like this you can see where technology was taking off for some of us and these are projects that we're done at home or in a shop back in the 70s would love to see even just some kind of motor that just made some noise and use it for a parade car or make it drag strip worthy again either way nice ride
The ford pinto came out in 71 with either the 2.0 four cyl or the 1.6 four cyl some special order cars even came factory with a v6 awsome little cars tuff as nails
My friend he had a car exactly like that very very similar it was a Ford pinto he had a 460 in it but the engine was out anyway and had the same setup I don't know what he did with that car but that car looks very similar I don't think it's the same car thou great video thumbs up
Thank you Robert, I actually JUST sold it and I do believe it went to a good home. The guy remembers it from way back when, and he actually bought another one of this fellow's old Fords a while back.

Amen my friend 🇺🇸 1
Nothing but respect for the soldiers who give up everything our country 🇺🇸
And what the fkuk does this have to do with the TOPIC.
This was my dad's race car that he built! He sold it to Robert when he built a new car.
Thank you so much for reaching out Tonya! I'm planning to do a follow up video to explain the car's history beyond what was explained in this video.
Hot Rod Hoarder, fantastic! Hopefully will include pics of when it ran?...
V cool to find your Dads old car.
this car needs to be a lemons racecar.
Tony Wolf he mentioned it ran a 351 Cleveland at some point.
I’ve watched this video 32 times. I bought my Pinto because of this video. I’d love to see what the guy that owns it now has done to it. I would have driven it just like it is.
Same car same one of a kind striping. I know there wasn't 2 like it. Yeah you got one hell of a piece of history there. RIP Bob Glidden
Everything is bad ass about this car. I think it was love at first sight for me....
It's a wild one, for sure!
I'm so glad to know that I'm not the only one out there that breathes and love this stuff...
I've always loved a pinto drag car
i remember back in the 1970s when Pintos and chevy Vegas were running on the tracks
And the Monza’s.
Grumpys Toy was probably the most famous Vega.
CHRISTOPHER T MUNRO damn 1869 that’s pretty damn old. Didn’t know they go back that far. I’m joking but I wish I was alive back in the 70’s
Nathan York, maybe it was a Studebaker??? Lol
@Mike Rusch yeah AMC had some cool rides ,,i forgot about that ,,,,
Thank you for including its bath! Was satisfying to see it cleaned up
It cleaned up surprisingly good!
Please, who ever buys it. A Ford in a Ford!
That's not junk !! As a veteran needing something to do, I'd love to have this.
I wanna see it run!
Goes with what I always say “ Older is better and the older the better”
Great find!
Definitely has that Bob Glidden Pro Stock look! One of the first projects I did as a teenager was putting a Chevy V-8 in a 71 Pinto! It was only completed enough to be a great burnout machine.

Oh man, that's awesome!
Bob Glidden raced a Pinto back in the day. Boss 351C dual quads. the whole bit.
Please don't paint it just clear coat it ! Keep it the way it is ! History !!!!!!! People will probably recognize that car and bring back alot of good memories !!!
Kids won’t & u must be 60 plus to have watched these cars race
Would really love to see this fully restored with that engine/trans combo you talked about and have it back on the track racing again.
Agreed! Kinda wish we had gotten the engine and trans, but still a cool piece.
@@HotRodHoarder what is the asking price for the Pinto and location?
You just answered my question, I hope someone brings it back to life👍
Haha yeah, it's sold already. Looks like it went to a good home!
@@HotRodHoarder updates TH-cam channel. pictures. I would like to see how this goes.
Before you cleaned it up I was thinking you should get this one going and run it at the track. After it got cleaned up I definitely think you should.
It's a very buildable car (compared to some of the other stuff we drag in). The chassis is nice, and could very easily be raced with a couple of small updates.
@@HotRodHoarder this would Be cool with Pinto 2.5 with big turbo but V8 with turbo would Be cool too
That's a cool car, weight transfer would be awesome, definitely need some wheelie bars! Looks really good cleaned up...who doesn't love a Pinto!
Yeah, surprisingly it didn't have wheelie bars. I bet it would need them.
People who were rear-ended, caught on fire. They're probably less enthused?
@@AngryTurds drag car
@@AngryTurds That was over exaggerated
Are those the car's that light up like a Roman candle when they get bumped from behind?

Thanks for watching Bobby!
@@HotRodHoarder when I finish my new shop if you still have this I'd be honored to buy it if possible
I would love to be blessed with another Pinto. I had plans for my last one, but a flood washed it down our creek, and well, big rocks and fallen trees, end of my dreams. Great find.

So stoked to have found this channel. Can stop watching!
The Pinto cleaned up way better than I expected, the car will make someone a fantastic nostalgia drag racer.
I was surprised with how well it cleaned up. Made me want to keep it haha.
I've been wondering about the Pinto sitting outside the shop, now I know.
Another great find.
It has gone to a new home. We brought in a couple of new projects last week. An '85 Chevy 4x4 truck and a '56 Ford. We like to rearrange the furniture around the shop lol.
😁😁
@@HotRodHoarder man I love those 56 fords. Something you are selling. Apic or two would be nice. Thanks for sharing
This was my papaw Robert’s car. He just recently passed and it was so heart warming to see this video. Thank you! ❤️
Thank you for reaching out Hayley! I never got to meet Robert, but I feel fortunate to have owned one of his cars.
Now that is a sweet car ! Thank you for sharing this with me ! Take care , stay safe and healthy with whatever your next project or adventure maybe ! Doing well here in Kansas .
Thanks for your continued support Steve!
@@HotRodHoarder you're welcome
Wow sweet story all old things have one nice to not lose the history
Man this is a really great story and car you found ,that was always my favorite race car the ford pinto all years. Thanks for sharing .
Thank you for watching!
You’re so welcome ,as you can see iam a drag racer as well ,a FORD man , I have a 69 Torino cobra 428 SCJ and a 70 Torino 429 SCJ.
Awwwwwwww bless it......I had a pinto here in England UK....LOVELY CAR!👍👍👍👍👍🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸
Drove pintos all through my younger years. First college car from Dad. 74 2000cc 4 spd. green runabout. That drive train lived through 3 bodies!
Wow, that's awesome Eric. I had a pretty good driver a few years back. 2300 4 speed...great little car!
I used to work at a UK Ford dealers and loved the challenge of a grot box coming in.😁
I'm so glad I found your page/site! The picture and title caught my eye and then when you said Tennessee.....yep....I'm gonna like these guys!
Yup that's really cool scthuff brother have a great time with it! Can't wait to see it sometime?
Yep...small car big motor..... always the way to go.....Nice save guys.
I like how you upgraded the McD's cup to a can of Fix-A-Flat
Lol yeah, had to get that scoop to the right height. Fix-A-Flat can was just right.
Wow, I've always loved the pintos and Vega v-8 swap cars. I'd love to see this one launch hard on the strip!
Reminds me so much of my dads 68 Dodge Dart. It was the same cookie cutter type drag car as far as the tires and how it sit all the sheet metal and just being a shell basically.

Very cool! They definitely made good race cars.
Would have seen this one brought back to life. Just bought one myself, an old Minny Stock that I will be rebuilding as a Pro Stock.
I can't believe that's the same car! WOW!
Cleaned up pretty good!
Crazy build 🤘thanks
It's a wild one for sure!

Sounds like it was an awesome project!
Great find!
Thanks for watching!
I thought they all burned up!!! There used to be Pintos EVERYWHERE for a time.. That is pretty much What a low budget funny car was like back then, There wars lots of air scoops buried in windshields because the 392 Hemi was a very popular motor for quarter mile cars in the 1960s-- There was no room in compact cars for huge motors, so you cut the fire wall and made room if needed. Me and some friends used to rip hemi motors out of old Imperials and Chryslers and scrap those huge bodies. The racers would pay good momney for a running 392!! We made a lot of beer money that way in high school!! Beer was less than $5.00 a case, + it seems to me that I got paid a case for every motor I helped to remove & we could do 5 or 6 a weekend!!! I was in heaven!!
I would love to see this running
Same here! I hope the new owner puts a motor and transmission in it.
I love this car! My first car was a 78 sport coupe
Great candidate for Byron Wheelstand Competition or exhibition car! I like it and remember seeing cars like this compete in the 70s and 80s. Very cool piece.
There had to be a ton of beer used when they put this thing together..
That's kinda what I was thinking haha.
@@HotRodHoarder Thanks always for some good videos..love what`s just sitting around and you guys sniff them out..good luck..Bob in Pgh.
I'm glad you wash it up . Then you can see what it really is . It would take a little work to bring it up-to-date but I think it's worth it . I'm glad you saved it

If you still have the car my dad would love to come and see it again!
Cool! Hope you put another Cleveland in it!

That pinto is so awesome.I have a v8 pinto wagon with a 302 v8 with about 450hp and it's fast. I can imagine how fast that one could be
I got a big block Chevy would look great in there or a Pontiac 400 or a olds 350. That thing would be so cool just to drive it! Apart from winds and obviously tires maybe chassis work I wouldn’t change a thing!! That thing is so badass I’m drooling 🤤 lol
Id go back to a giant killer 351c mabye some don Nicholson style high port heads 10,000 rpm baby!
It's a wild piece, for sure. I couldn't believe it when I saw where you sit to drive it. So cool.
Reminds me of the D-gas days. Engine under the windshield. Very cool!
YES! I love cars with engine setback. Always cool.
What a beautiful car!
Got a small block I would love to put in this car !
A classic drag car 👍
I wish i have the money to buy and restore that beatiful piece the way is build and the look the have is something special i really loved💪🔥✌
Love seeing old cars like this you can see where technology was taking off for some of us and these are projects that we're done at home or in a shop back in the 70s would love to see even just some kind of motor that just made some noise and use it for a parade car or make it drag strip worthy again either way nice ride

So awesome finding drag racing history I love the channel keep finding them out there
Thanks for watching Robert!
My senior year ‘81 ride to school was school bus yellow V8 Pinto my friend had built, he went out of way to pick me up and we arrived in style.
Nice! V8 in a little car is always fun!
I drove by that car sitting there for since I was a kid for probably the past 30 years wishing that I could be able to build that car
Oh my god this is even better than Bob Gliddens pinto awsome !!
Haha, a Bob Glidden Pinto would be a keeper for sure.
thats awesome id love to have something like that
What a great find!
Thanks for watching Henry!
Super cool!
Nice job! Beautiful car as is!! Love it!!
Thanks for watching John!
NICE SCORE!!!! I wish I could afford to buy it...its just too damn kool!!!
We love this type of stuff...one-of-a-kind car for sure.
Are you going to try and restore it ,it would be great to see it .ive again.
My friend he had a car exactly like that very very similar it was a Ford pinto he had a 460 in it but the engine was out anyway and had the same setup I don't know what he did with that car but that car looks very similar I don't think it's the same car thou great video thumbs up
Awsome junk man 💯......it doesn't get any better then that.....be well....🙂👍
Thanks for watching!
Wow a little soap and water and all the sudden you got a nice little car. 💪🇺🇸💪
Yep, I couldn't believe how well it cleaned up!
I remember seeing this car at my home track Brainerd motorsports Park in Ringgold Georgia when I was a kid going with my dad
super nice
I hope it finds a good home
Thank you Robert, I actually JUST sold it and I do believe it went to a good home. The guy remembers it from way back when, and he actually bought another one of this fellow's old Fords a while back.
