1974 Drag-N-Fly Maverick

i think i could do it with a few tools.

 

That kit gives the Mav/Com a bad name. Yuck!! An old Datsun 240 was rear ended by a grabber "REAL HARD".

It is rare indeed. I hope it stays that way.

 

I wonder what those rear side window louvers look like up close. They are only in the old pic and not on the car.

 

Here are some of the louvers on a Grabber from Ohio.

My Drag-N-Fly either didn't come with the louvers or they were removed before I got the car. [There is a lot of speculation as to what was "standard"]. I've seen the louvers available on eBay, but they weren't cheap.

The car below was at our nationals in 2003. The owner is Jim Allen from Ohio, I believe.

 

hey dab can i get two measurements from you. hood extention and bumper extention?


how close are the z cars and the mavericks in size?:confused:

 

The louvers look kind'a interesting. Might give a Maverick a bit of a Mustang GT look...

 

I have seen that car a couple times....and it is truly a awesome car. I believe it was featured in the July 2003 issue of Mustang & Ford.
BUT, in my opinion.....the louvers would look much better on the car if it had the rear louvers with it.

 

I'm sorry, but that's just BAD. And I don't mean a good kinda bad, it's a bad BAD. UGLY........... Gotta be honest.......Preston

 

i don't know it looks like what some guys do to imports.. uh oh did i say that word again?

 

One question??? Does it have a coffee can exhaust tip??? How about an erector set wing on the back?????

 

Johnson asked for some measurements. I don't have the car at home, but here is a clip from my article 2 years ago:

If anyone is interested, I have attached the full article that Craig printed in our Shorthorns newsletter.

Earl: The spoiler on the trunk is so heavy, the trunk lid won't stay up. It doesn't need any more weight.

There was a company that made Ferrari body kits to go on a Pinto back in the 70's too. Looked every bit as good as that " fly" maverick does.

 

thanks

 

Hey Doug, who actually wrote that article? Was it the guy you bought the car off of?

 

I wrote the article based on the information the last owner had aquired and from my observations of the Drag-N-Fly itself. This is why I say some of this is speculation.
