Haha My wife bought a 72 Pinto one time for 20.00. I drove it for 3 years and sold it for 150.00. Best car deal I ever made.

The one I sold was cut and used for parts by a guy that raced Pintos at Callaway racetrack in the mini car division. This was about 15 years ago.

HaHa, I bought an '84 Cavalier for $100.00 and sold it 2 years later for $500.00. The ONLY car I have ever made money on!

Ok I'm bored with the Bean. I got a offer for it the other day site unseen for$1500 Which has convinced me to Finish with the coil swap as soon as I can find some castle nuts to fit the ball joints and Take it up the road and burn them down a time or two and let it go and get another Heep maybe a CJ.
