    Don't worry, it never happened, probably just a misprint.

    Bow Tie? I've been on this site for 12+ years.
    As for you having a Cleveland, that's fine you did that, it didn't come from the factory like that, likewise no Maverick or Comet ever came from the factory with a 351 W. I have seen, and ridden in two different Dragon Flys. Shelby Mavericks never existed, maybe the one did, but beyond that, I doubt there were anymore. Bearcats, and Stabbers were dealer built cars, nothing more than Comet GT's with side pipes and mag wheels.
    But then again, I know very little about these cars.

    An all the literature that was distributed to 1000s of dealers that listed 302 as the only V8 was wrong???

    I have a friend with a Boss 351 Maverick & toploader along with 9" rear, was special ordered...

    Might be true since it was a comet, If it was a maverick then It'd be unbelievable. We all know Comets are a lot nicer than mavericks.

    Quality over quantity. Mavericks are throw away cars or parts cars for Comets.
