A couple years ago I over heard a guy say "thats sad someone is fixing a Maverick up" so today I had this painted on the back of the Maverick--- I need to clean the soap stone off of it.
Not sad.!! But true. I BET THEY WOULD LIKE TO FEEL AS --SAD-- AS YOU DO EACH TIME YOU GET BEHIND THE WHEEL.!! GOOD LOOKING MAVERIVK..
Hahaha I like it! I get **** from people all the time because I am restoring my maverick. Gonna suck for them when its all done up and they're driving their pos car
Haha I had a guy tell me..."why build that... It's a waste of time and money it aint a mustang" but IMO mustangs are lame because theirs a tons of them. Looks good I like it
Whats, "sad" is how you'll blow their 92 Toyota Tercels away by 10 cars. Bunch of jackasses that know nothing about anything. Clean Maverick BTW!
When I was doing the body work, getting ready for paint, on mine back in '93, I had a guy harass me incessantly about me wasting my time doing anything with a Maverick! Went on for a few months..but I never said anything! I had a few rust spots under the hood and a few small holes in the floors...but he had the replace both inner fenderwells, both fenders, both floors, both quarters and the tailight panel...all on his '75 Nova! I think I got the last laugh...
My maverick has made many trips down the 1/4 mile and I have gotten the same crap from mostly chevy guys , the mouth goes away when I put them on the trailer. Mavericks make a great drag racer they plant the tires hard even with stock suspension. All the Early Mustangs I owned needed serious work to make them leave the start line , there springs rap up like crazy and the rear end trys to come through the floor.
I get a lot more compliments than I do negative comments, but that one just stuck in my head. So I had it that painted on the back, looks pretty cool too, and I have a story to go with it.
As the Proud owner of a 72 Sprint and also a 67 and 68 mustang i love my Maverick just as much. There just jelous they dont have one.
