I acually owned (bought new) both of the Fords pictured.

It's a long story why but, I wiil say that I worked for Ford at the time and got hefty discounts.
The '74 Mustang II was a "Mach One" with a very good, German designed V-6.
The '77 Pinto was acually a pretty good economy car (for its time) that was extremely stable in crosswinds.

Yes, the stability in the crosswinds held it firmly in place so that the winds could put the fires out after getting hit from behind
