Seems as it's belongs to an owner with an upscale taste for styling and outfits - he has ordered the partner-look-colour, that it fits to the canoe. :lol:

Perhaps he fitted the canoe permanently as an extra rear-end safety feature...

@rljuna2: I think, the Pinto's had no special "European" bumpers. Maybe it was total identical with the US-version (but without a catalysator).
I have no idea, how successful the Pinto was in Europe. There were some articles about it, even advertises (I own several 1970+ car magazines... :whistle: ), but how many were sold here finally, I don't know.

What I meant, ingo, that the federal bumper on this car was introduced in 1974 model year...
