    The Mavericks and Comets with the big bumpers i.e. the above first two pictures, always reminds me of the Eddie Murphy movie the Nutty Professor when Sherman Klump's weight loss concoction begins to wear off and his lip becomes huge. Maybe it is just me.

    yeah he really wants to find some small bumpers and do a conversion on it. but i am going to suggest that he does a bumper tuck for now just to improve the look of the car. the big bumpers that are on in are in pretty good shape.

    the fun on this car is going to start on saturday. the transmission needs to be replaced and i happen to have one in my falcon that i'm not going to use. so the trans needs to come out of my falcon and hopefully will have it in the mav before the end of the day.

    i just realized the pictures i posted from the ad make it look like it is summer. but they were taken last month, what a weird winter we have been having here in utah.
