    hey guys and gals :)

    i was flipping thru some old pics one day and happened upon the only picture i have of my first car, which i had wrecked :cry:
    it was a blue 76 maverick 4 door with the 250 straight 6.

    later that day i got on-line and found this website and went .. :wow:
    i could not believe it.
    i have been lurking on the site for awhile, but have decided to come out of the shadows.

    the name "bugboy63" follows me from my current passion for old vws.
    but fords are right up there, i love my f350.

    will i own another maverick?

    the thought has crossed my mind (y)

    looks like a nice bug there (y) ... oh ya, and the maverick too :D
    what's in the garage?

    my 63 bug is a primered shell and my 65 westy is a "driver".
    i camp in it at shows, which is better than sleeping on the gound in a tent.
