    1974 Maverick
    I am the owner of a 1974 Maverick, my Dad is the original owner and like probably most people here have spent a lot of their car. It was a 250cc and I stuffed a 302 4bbl that I got from a 68 Mustang (according to the block) and of course tweaked. I found a grabber hood and put fiberglass fenders on it. I just took the car out of storage and started it for the first time in 8yrs. After 2 hours of prep work, it started in the 2nd try. It actually ran great for having run for that long a period. Now I am at a crossroads of keeping it or selling it. Surprising being from NY, it doesn't have that much rust.

    Just wanted to say hello to everyone.
