  • This has been a three year project that has been both challenging and rewarding. I purchased a 1972 Maverick that was very rough just to see how feasible it would be to stuff a 4.6 and 4r70w in it.
    From replacing floors to moving shock towers and modifying just about everything on the car I can say I am very pleased with the outcome. Thanks to the wealth of knowledge on this forum you guys helped make my dream come true !
