    Beautiful car, welcome to the forum. I like someone who posts a picture on their first post. Good stuff! (y) Just curious, I noticed that Brazilian Mavericks have different sport lamps in the grille. Are they glass? what kind of bulb does it use? ~Brian

    Thank you very much for all for the hospitality and the compliments regading my car !!

    Regarding the sport lamps in the grille, you're right !! They're glass, usually we use a plastic protection in the lens to protect from small stones or something like that. I'm not sure, but I believe that the original manufacturer of the sport lamps is CIBIE

    Will be great to stay with all of you to share experiences. I'm mounting a new 331" engine with all parts from U.S and I'm sure that I will learn a lot with all of you.

    Remark: The guys here are very fast in the answers, this is great !! :thumbs2:

    Ditto! on the car you have. Very nice. I like it a lot. It is in such good condition. Is it original paint? Probably, eh? Warm hot climate. I need to move.

    Thanks again for the posts !!

    Ryan, this is not the original paint, the first colour of the car was white !!
    Here in Brasil, except in the south of the country, we have 9 months of very hot climate and never snows !! :dancing:

    Brazil is a country that everybody needs to come, at least, on time in your life !! Everybody are welcome :Welcome:
