I would not type this if I didn't think I was correct. I want to say the 76 Pinto is the only year that is a unique Pinto. 71–75 all of the same grill. 77–78 & 79-80 have the same grill as well. Actually maybe you can tell a 75 from the 71-74 as well due to the unleaded gas decal on the car. my Aunt had a 75 Pinto wagon. I remembered those bucket back seats, the car was light blue ( no woodpaneling ) with blue interior.
Got a soft spot for Pintos. Kinda funny though, in the states... there seems to be a lot of original Pintos still on the road. I live in Canada, and the only Pintos I've seen are in wrecking yards or restored. We've got a lot of Chevettes on the road up here.
This was probably as good as it got in Pinto-land back in the day! Love the wire wheelcovers. I gotta think they are original! Very classy! Like so many others....35 years ago this wasn't cool, but now it is!
Best of OPC.

GM's version of the bullet mirrors looked better, but these look good too.
Tha Ram provides some interesting perspective
god that profile shot.
