  • Super Pinto? HA!!

    Well jeepers! I started reading that other thread thinking it would be about the Famous Flying Ford Pinto of yore.

    It graced (cursed?) the skies of SoCal some years (okay, decades) back. As I recall, the project came to a bad end when the beast fatally augured into a beanfield near Oxnard.

    Looks like a joke, and probably flew like a bad one.
