Not many pintos like that left. I would tune that bad boy up and squeeze every mpg out of her that you could great car to have. I would take an extra look and add some padding to the gas tank due to the stigma and issues pinto had. Wait or was 78 the first of the good ones? I can't remember might want to google it to be sure I thought it was 79 but I was too young back then.
My Grandfather had a white and orange pinto we hit some ice in the adirondacks upstate NY smacked off a guardrail 6 times spinning. Car held up great. Many fond and embarassing momments in a pinto. The reason I always preffered a chevette
