    Just picked up my maverick today and man it is awesome runs like a beast (has a flow master on it) Already get lots of looks on it haha! Heck been driving it all day that it dont matter that my back hurts ( has no cushion what so ever! )
    Now there is issues that will need to address first...

    1. Replace one of the front tires one of the rubber has peeled off and all i hear is rubber sound...maybe a $20 new used tire for it.
    2. No interior gauges lights turn on at night...maybe bad fuses or light bulbs gone out? Also left turn signal does not show...but does work (check front and back...just doesnt show inside)
    3. Has no intake? Carb has no air intake, maybe get an after market cheap or maybe look around local parts.
    4. Add power steering?...man took me a while to get used to it...was swerving a bit around.
