Videos: Pinto Owners Assemble To Honor Wounded Soldiers

Recently, a group of over fifty Pinto and Bobcat owners belonging to the Pinto Car Club of America assembled to create an event called the Pinto Stampede in celebration of the car’s 40^th anniversary by taking a road trip that started on May 29^th in Denver, Colorado, and ended on June 2^nd in Carlisle, Pennsylvania at the Ford Nationals.

As an added bonus, the road trip also served as a charity drive that benefited wounded soldiers courtesy of The Wounded Warrior Project with a projected goal of raising $10,000. If they actually reached that amount is unclear even after checking their website, but we do know that they’ve received different amounts from various sources.

The owners of these things genuinely take great pride in their cars evidently, as parts of the road trip and the car show was covered by numerous media outlets across the country.

How this story managed to slip through our fingers until now we have no idea, but we’re glad we have stumbled upon it to share with you. Whatever your opinion is of the car is a right that you’re entitled to, but there’s no denying the cool factor of a group of bonafide car enthusiasts getting together for a worthwhile charitable cause, if we do say so ourselves.

If you missed these guys at the Carlisle Ford Nationals, don’t worry, because according to their website they’ll be making appearances in July and September in various parts of the country.
