    Whats up all, just wanted to say hi!
    Bought a 74 Mav in line 6 about 2 months ago.
    Trying to get get running well enough to make a 800 mile trip to
    New Mexico. This is where I will begin the restoration! She is running strong after I rebuilt the carb, replaced all sparks and fluids (she had been sitting for 2 years). Yesterday while test driving her, after screwing with the timing, the gas pedal hit the floor, and didn't come back up. Upon inspection of this I also found a new leak in the radiator. So, thats what I am currently working on.
    Oh, and the driver side window fell off track. So it's just screwing with me now! Small **** I know, but I am here encase anything else unexpected happens, and to get acquainted with other Maverick buffs for when I begin the restoration side of my new project car.

    Sincerely Noah W. :thumbs2:
