The front suspension in the Pinto is the same as the Mustang II. They are actually one of the better factory coil over setups to use for retrofits.

Come to think of it, I've been contemplating using one for the front suspension in a V8 RWD CRX project. I'm gonna try to take it to Hot Import Nights at the local strip, lmao.
