Jack, how about this?

The locally, **and** Nationally proclaimed, "World's Fastest Pinto"  is now
available for a very modest price.

Ted Lewis is the owner and builder of this car. He is the 2nd owner of this
AZ vehicle, and has owned it since 1993. He had it at Nationals during the
RX3 heyday and finished mid pack. He DID win the San Diego National Tour in
1998 however. The only reason he is selling it is due to the recent
purchase of a 1965 Lotus Elan (pretty, but leaky red thing)

Specifics of the Pinto:
1971
2 L, 4 spd
Weber
header
Konis (x4)
Alum flywheel
13x9 Keisers
Hoosiers mounted, xtra set of 13x7 American racing mags
Cobra race seat
3" lap belt
Flowmaster
Beautiful black paint after he acquired it
(he is a master body/paint man, so it is nice)
AZ car since new

the best thing?

Just $2,000

win tomorrow with this DSP car

Ted is not email endowed, so you'll have to call him at home:

thanks, jim rohn
