Pinto.
They were available with a V8. The Pinto, not so much.
It was Motor trend's car of the year in '75, you know.
Yeah, as with most cars, I wanted one of those. Actually, I liked the Oldsmobile H body for some reason.
Still wouldn't mind one if it were suitably modified.
Then again, I spent a little time looking up how to make power with a Ford 400 this afternoon and thinking I'd kinda love this.

So, yeah. I like some weird cars.
In reply to fast_eddie_72:
I remember one of the hatches like that with big box flares. It was cool.
I was going to say Mustang II also.
A friend in high school in the early 80's had a Monza (wish I knew what year), much nicer body shape. The manual trans scared him, he tried to put in an auto. I remember walking past his house with assorted metal bits scattered everywhere & him scratching his head. Yeah, it ended up like everything else he touched.

The Monza Mirage. Story of the Mirage
Oh, and these were built on the Vega platform. I think they were GM's way of getting their money out of the Vega tooling while distancing themselves from the bad name of that car.
This one already has the original 5.7L 350 in it http://fayetteville.craigslist.org/cto/3652924260.html

Note to GRMers with Classic Minis: GM H-Bodies have the same bolt pattern. I have those wheels on mine. 
I drifted one of those cars before I knew what drifting was.
The frame cracked in half due to rust. Not "had holes in the floorpan" or other nonsense. No, the car literally broke in the middle.
