Couldn’t be more.

Pinto’s should have been the flaming end to a lot of Ford upper management.

Vega GT’s. Balanced and handled well enough, they were often used for tire tests. It was truly a fun little car in the mountains, where my rich uncle wanted me after his all expenses paid trip to South East Asia. (Ft Carson, nice place, I would have been very tempted to stay and make it a career, except they tried Again :( to make this infantry trained soldier into a clerk typist. I can type, but not even close to Army standards. In the Army, regardless of the document’s length, not one error was allowed. Type a full page, single spaced, miss-spell the last word, it has to be typed again. Being dyslexic, give me a gun, Please Not a Selectric typewriter…).

Vega GT, I wish they would have let me spec out the engine. Over square, aluminum block with liners, aluminum crossflow head, keep the single overhead cam but make it a Chrysler style hemi head, no more than 2 liters, Put some really good rust proofing on some decent steel or borrow the composite construction from the St Louis plant where Corvettes where being made for the body. I would still be driving it.
I completely ruined the handling of my ‘72 Vega GT by adding a smallblock.

You are putting the miles down. I enjoy seeing your local travel photos. Redmond, for a wash at the surf thru, and my favorite store, Coastal. Then to the new Costco in Bend, followed by some shopping at the old mall. Looks like a full afternoon.
