    Glad to hear you got the car and most parts back. My alarms were going off too. When a shady shop goes out of business the vultures usually descend on them and leave only the worthless junk behind. Seen it happen to 2 of my friends too.

    I hate to say this, but mavericks (even nice painted ones like mine)...are generally overlooked in a shop completely full of custom late model and some early model mustangs....we're talking about modified terminator cobras, regular cobra's built, custom fox's etc.

    My little maverick in the corner just escaped all that, luckily.

    I've got my maverick and re-assembly will start.

    I've decided to use the ford motorsport crate motor in the maverick instead of putting it into my 66 mustang.

    the 66 can wait, my maverick's getting built now. It'll have a nice little 320 horse ford crate motor behind a c4 for now(aod in the future)..

    keep posted guys, you'll see lots of pics in the up coming months.

    Glad to see you got your wee beastie back in one piece or pieces. Thank God for the other cars being there to be seen over the little Maverick.(y):D
