    Hi, I'm 16 years old, and had an account on the forums for a while, I had put off introducing myself for a while, but I'm here now. I picked up my Maverick last November after searching for awhile. Its a 71, 302 with a C4(can't wait to dump that for a 5 speed). I got a bunch of parts with the car, including the pans (mustang pans) and cowl hat replacements to weld in at some point soon. Since I picked it up I've spent some time,not near as much as I'd like thanks to school, wrenching on it, brake work, fuel pump, etc. I apologize in advance for the crappy cell phone pics. I absolutely love my Maverick and am glad to be a part of the forum.

    I plan on getting it road worthy by sometime this summer, probably gonna do it all in gray epoxy primer soon. Long term I want to really build the car out, coil over front suspension, 3 link rear, big brakes(I still have quad drums) and then paint it some shade of orange, I really like the color fishoutofwater used. I might do a build thread if i ever have progress moving at a more steady pace.

    Thanks Frank, I was asking more for the end result....but your point is painfully valid
