    You are doing a nice job with the car. The console looks like it fits pretty well.

    WOW!!! Keep up the awesome work!!
    And since you have a Maverick in Brazil, maybe you could list the differences between the ones we have here, and the ones there?

    well some other differences that i notticed is the trunk in Brazil the spare tire sits in the middle of the trunk it has a round whole for the tire also the rear diff is very different even on the 302s they have the cover on the back like the 80's 90's newer mustangs the gas tank is a little different too.
    the front shocks are different the bracket that sits on top of the tower has just a center hole for hte nut of the shock, the dome light on the roof is round, oh and they have ashtrays on each side on the back unther the back windows other than that as you know they have the radio and the glove comp on the dashboard, also the gas caps are different and lack of the parking lights on the sides and on the GT versions they have a center console and tachometer on the stering colum! i think that's all :hmmm:
