    Just got my latest hot rod, a '71 Maverick. It's got a '93 5.0 swapped to carb, headers, & a Flowmaster. C4 auto with the "flare up" issue. 295/50's on the back. I dunno, I'm still trying to decide exactly what to do next. It needs some rust repair(damn vinal tops anyways) and dual exaust for starters. I been lurking and reading here on the board, this place is awesome!

    Oh, and I'm going to do the Caprice tail light swap, that just looks too cool lol.

    Thanks guys! The wheels are some unknown brand 15x8's, I'd like to get something else eventually but they are pretty beefy looking. I'm definetly going to do the sequential lights, I think its part of the "package", completes the look lol.

    I have a few more pics but will have to wait to post them, I'm having computer issues right now.

    Thanks for the replies!
