    Sorry, I got a new job about the time I first posted, and then life...well, you know.
    I have never seen another color combo like this one. It's been repainted, but in the original colors. We took great pains to match everything up.

    What about some pictures of the interior ? I've been to several Maverick events , can't recall seeing any w/ that paint scheme and vinyl roof.

    I will post pics of the interior. It's in the garage now getting the Borgeson P/S conversion. Package tray is out, gauges on the floor, nuts and bolts all around. I can say it has the Deluxe interior with the woodgrain inserts in the door panels. Bucket seats, floor shift. Seats need recovering, that's next years project. The wife wanted to do it this year, but I wanted the steering done first.
    Next week is vaca in Myrtle Beach, so it will be the week after that probably. i bought in in 1989 from the original owner, so I can say that this is the original color. I got it repainted in 2004 and took great pains to make sure everything was as original. I have always loved the way the white paint, gold stripes, and black top work together.

    So by any chance, does the wife call her "the other woman"?
