: Hi folks!
: I am looking for a "support group" of Maverick enthusiasts,
: and from the activity on this board, it looks like I might have found
: it. At the risk of boring everyone with the introduction details:
: My Maverick: `73 Grabber, blue over white, 302 A/T, aluminum wheels, bucket
: seats, A/C, all original. Looks like a twin of one I found in the photo
: gallery owned by Mike Shively (only his appears to be in much better
: shape! :)
: I'm just starting to restore mine. It was my trusty high school &
: college car until `94 when the timing gear ate itself at 147K miles.
: I'll probably have thousands of annoying questions along the way as
: this is also my first automotive restoration project.
: And my first annoying question is: does anyone here live in the
: Seattle area? I need to find trustworthy leads on everything from
: machine shops to upholstry fabrication, to ??? Any good clubs in
: the area?
: Thanks in advance,
: --David
