    Alright i know i have not been working on the mav but i am almost finished with the 70 Mach 1 i am building and then it will be back on the mav full speed....snow is approaching and i would love to drive it before that happens.....every time i lift the hood i get the same reaction "how did you get that in there you are crazy" and that is just what i was looking for.....went to a car show yesterday and there was a 70 mav there totally stock for 3K
