    For the first time in a long time it got really nice and warm (60s) today.Got the brakes and exaust done a few weeks ago so I pulled it outside today and took a little spin up to the neighbors and back,(maiden voyage) got to grab a couple gears,feels real strong,felt good to "drive" it a little.Cleaned out the storage area of the shop and pulled the "Horse" out for the first time since last fall,let it warm up and run for awhile.Man I like warm weather over this crap we've had this year,C'mon summer!!!

    That is going to be a tough looking car. I love the look of Cragar S/S's. They really are a timeless wheel.

    It reminds me of the black GT my buddy had in high school. These pics
    are from 20 yrs. ago.

    Wow! All the pics look great! When I first bought my car in `83 the original plan was to paint it Black with Cragars. It got the cragars But never made it to the paint shop. I will paint it back the way it is when the time comes ...but still love Black cars also.

    Jack,

    Being able to see your Maverick from a distance really lets you get a good look at the stance that it has. Its awesome. So much better than being right up on top of it when I first saw it sitting in the your garage. It is looking sweet!! I will give you a call later. The Bronco is nice too, they both look good out of the garages.

    Allen
