    Well, if you know much about me at all you know I'm setting my sights on a 2 door maverick in the future. I've been thinking of a few different concepts I could do. Lately I've been looking at the blue stallion in stefan's gallery. How do you guys feel about stallion "clones"? I know whatever I decide I'm going all out. To me so far the coolest maverick centiric thing I could do is go the stallion route. Also, What would you think of a stallion paint job with a grabber hood? The grabber hood is such a work of art. Seriously.

    So are you all saying Drag N Fly Mavericks are the coolest???

    yeah, right.

    On topic, yeah, build a clone. With a grabber hood and spoiler, small bumpers and everything. There's one like that around here and looks awesome!

    I say go for it. Since my Comet already has the chrome blacked out, I've been contemplating doing a Stallion-esque paint job as well, but using a light metallic tan instead of a factory color. Kind of a Stallion my way. I think Stallions are the baddest for looks so you can't go wrong. Let us know what you decide!

    Long as you don't try to pass it off as a real Stallion, I'd say go for it.

    I'm definitely going to. Think I should choose from the original stallion colors or just go nuts? I like the metallic blue, but there's nicer shades out there.
