CougarTim ◊ 2011-08-25 21:05	One of the two. The rear is seen at /vehicle_426869-Rolls-Royce-Corniche-1971.html parked in front of the garage. -- Last edit: 2011-08-30 14:27:48 (tonkatracker)

tonkatracker ◊ 2011-08-30 14:28	it does now (Tim i fixed your link)
AMC man ◊ 2011-09-13 21:23	It is a Mercury Bobcat by the wheels.
CougarTim ◊ 2011-09-13 22:11	Ford would never make it that easy. Those wheels were available on the Pinto too: Link to "www.oldcarbrochures.com"

rjluna2 ◊ 2011-09-14 02:29	Since it has federal bumpers on both side, so 1974 or later.
dsl ◊ 2011-09-14 13:38	So 1974+ Pinto 2 door (not hatch) and therefore not a Bobcat - "Mercury would not offer the 2-door "sedan" bodystyle on the Bobcat" - http://wikicars.org/en/Mercury_Bobcat . -- Last edit: 2011-09-14 13:38:36
rjluna2 ◊ 2011-09-15 03:22	Does the taillight looks larger than the 1974-76 model year or not? /vehicle_320291-Ford-Pinto-Runabout-1974.html /vehicle_113468-Ford-Pinto-1977.html
