My "new to me" 1973

Don't change a thing on it! Looks awesome!

 

I don't plan on changing anything . I almost didn't buy it because I wanted to change it and was going to feel bad if I did, but after seeing it's condition and driving it just the way it is I just can't do it. Although I'd love to be able to even just have a 12 second car or less again, but I will keep her the way the original owner did for all those years. He owned it until 2006 when he passed away. I will change the wheels and swap them out off and on with the original ones though from time to time

 

Nice looking car. Congratulations on the find.

 

in the 11th shot from the top do those look like lift dents to anyone else.i had my tranny rebuilt along time ago,maybe7 or 8 yrs.way before i started doing any body work and one day i was cleaning it and notice the same exact dents.i knew i was going to resto it someday and too much time had past for me to really shoot the blame at the tranny joint.the city i work for uses them for ALL transmission work ie cop cars,our water dept vehicles etc.they cut me a really good deal.so i didnt want to b*tch.but those dents looked just like mine.

 

Ps nice ride dude

 

Wow...you landed a very nice survivor.

It certainly looks like the original owner kept it out of the elements as much as possible. A virtually rust free Wisconsin Maverick. Amazing.

 

Yeah i'm guessing there was maybe a flat or something at one time and they began to jack it up at the wrong spot or maybe a shop after it happened to be looked over. Who knows The other side is A-OK. There are two small dents that run on that same side right where the chrome trim runs along the side.

I love Mavericks more and more every day I look at them. The size, style and potential I think are great. Now I want another one that I can actually hop up a bit but I only have a two car garage lol.
