    I entered my Maverick in a local car show over the weekend. I got a T-Shirt and dash plaque and after they announced the overall winner I left. An organizer came into my office this afternoon and notified me that I had placed third overall! I got several gift certificates as prizes... image_original.jpg

    Take that you nay sayers! haha

    How's that with big bumpers? :rolleyes:
    I have no issue with them actually. But I can't tell you how many times I have heard how ugly they are. Congrats to you! (y)

    very nice car even if it has big bumpers. the wheels really distract from the bumpers and the top with pin striping is a very unique touch (y)

    I think just because your car is SO clean and the red vinyl top got you placed maybe if you had some more modern aftermarket wheels you couldve placed higher

    NICE car
