    I don't know where in the world this car is, or the name of the fine gentleman driving it, but in my lifetime I will track this car down and I will own it.

    This car is meant for me. I must have it.

    No pintos yet. Had a friend back in high school who hot rodded his little four-speed car and was famous for doing donuts in the intersections of Morris on Friday "cruisin' nights." I've warned my wife if the right PCW - Pinto Cruising Wagon - comes along, that she's gonna have to make room for one more vehicle. But I'd also consider finding a spot for a mint Mercury Bobcat. I'm partial to the really odd and rare orphans. Thanks for hollerin' at me.

    Thanks Pinto-Man, I might just do that. You wouldn't happen to be a staffer at OCW, would you?
