Trailer Park Treasure

One of the perks of living in a "mobile home community" has to be the ability to accumulate weird projects and half-apart junk cars without the neighbors really complaining much—there’s a lot of places I can think of where you couldn’t get away with dismantling a couple Pintos, that’s for sure. I spotted this pair when I went to check out this Craigslist Firebird with a friend recently. The owner said he was going to build one Pinto out of two, and swap in a 2006 Ford Focus motor—he had a whole plan for hooking it up to the Pinto’s RWD transmission. It probably won’t turn out anything like the one we found on eBay this week, but it’ll definitely be something different.
