I'll be scrapping the C4 from my 76 very soon. I am swapping the drivetrain from my 73, which is all completely rebuilt. The 76 has 80,000...
I don't think it's impossible to attain that speed, but stopping from that speed may be another issue! :) Going in a generally straight...
There is a "chrome" powder coating you could use. It looks pretty nice. Do a Google search for some pics. It should be a lot cheaper than...
Please post specs/ pics of the 300 when you get it home! My dad had 67 Mustang w/ a 300 3 speed, and when I mentioned this thread, he had a...

I've had luck with "goof off" or "goo off", not sure which name is correct. Comes in a small orange spray bottle, you can get it at any hardware...

you can get adapters to fit 4x108, 4x100 etc....

The car looks great as is! I like the wheels, too! Maybe some redline tires!??? I have never seen them on a Maverick (and I can't afford...
So, I was painting the last 2 factory steel wheels from the 76 today, and when they were side by side, noticed they're different widths. The...
