    Made a deal to get rid of my Sprint. Should be leaving tomorrow.

    Gonna keep my 70 Maverick and the 73 Comet.

    And my 71 Grabber of course. Might put that one back on the street in the near future. Only needs a wiper motor and wipers to be street legal. I do think I'll need to change out the fuel cell. 5 gallons probably won't go far. May need to change the 4500 Convertor. I have a 3500 here also.:)

    Sometimes downsizing the fleet is the best choice!...can't drive em all at once.

    and that 5Gal. fuel cell..you will get to know the guys at the local gas stations pretty quickly, hopefully it's on the road soon.

    This guy is definitely a Ford guy. Has 3 California Special Mustangs, a Shelby, numerous other Mustangs, Rancheros, etc. This is his first Maverick. He restores cars for a living. Does really nice work.:)
