    After two years and three months I finally finished the "Great pumpkin" Maverick of Arlen Fadely. I want to thank everyone on this site. Although I did not contribute much... I sure learned allot. I also learned that these are great cars with lots of Racing Heritage. Thank You for all the interest shown in keeping these cars alive, and preserving their place in automotive history.
    Thanks Again!

    That particular car was probably most responsible for getting me involved with my Comets. Still have a few of the SS/DI mags with it in it.
    Those articles started about a year before I got my driver's license. :thumbs2:

    Very cool to see a top-notch resto being done to it.

    Great restoration! Fantastic looking car and an interesting color combination.
