    Bought my maverick last year, with the 200 Inline 6. Re painted / redid most of the engine bay, restoring it to its original state. Runs mint, needs a paintjob and new vinyl top as clear coats gone.

    More pics coming soon

    The underhood cleaned up nice. Have you had the front end aligned? The front wheel looks way too far behind the centreline of the wheel opening in the picture. Maybe it's just an optical illusion with the picture, but it would be worth checking.

    All said, it looks like a super solid car! Looking forward to more progress and more pictures!!

    Thanks for the feedback so far, much appreciated!

    And yes the wheel is not strait. So i dosent look aligned in that picture, but rest assured it is.
