I have to say, I'm doing my Pinto wagon, originally in brown, in the brightest yellow I could find with blacked out windows. It's getting a modern power plant upgrade to a 2.3 EFI out of a fox body. The interior is gonna be black and yellow. Some people hate, I love it. My Boss 302 was in grabber blue, so this Maverick will be also. I remember when I was young and driving my Mustang, I would see this grabber blue grabber Maverick and I loved it. It had C stripes on it, haven't seen another since that one. I want it the same as that one, it was a pretty awesome car to be honest. So what's cool is I'm finding some of the Maverick parts from the 70 that I brought from some folks here like the black seatbelt set and some rubber. So this will be awesome in grabber blue, I will do the seats with black and grabber blue maybe, haven't decided that yet. So I guess it will reflect my personality, jacked up in the back also with huge tire. Basically I want a car that looks like someone played with it and modified it back in the 70s Gotta have a hurst shifter and everything else to make it mine I'm pretty excited about this project and what I plan on
It'll handle much better of you lower the front instead of jacking up the rear, & stuff as fat a tire that will fit inside the sheetmetal. That's cool that you're putting a 2.3EFI in your pinto. Those color schemes sound attractive.
Looks good Diane so far. I like yellow too. I am painting my Maverick yellow. There is another pinto wgn sitting down here that you could probably buy right.
Thanks, I looked on CL there and didn't see it. Let me know. I don't have room anymore, sold all my cars and loaded up again LOL But my neighbor is looking for one that's a runner. He offered me $1,500 for mine ahahahaha
A picture of my functional stock hood scoop. I've added a K&N air cleaner top since the picture was taken.
That looks great honestly! Nice compartment! I did black in the engine bay on my Pinto, it does look good in black instead of trying to something else.
The PO cut the hood opening so I suppose one could say it's functional... Normally they are just decoration...
