    The radiator looks great in there. Amazing they charged that much for polish, but it works!!!

    By the way, I have a HUGE list started of things I need help with on my car so get "Pinky the Love Maverick" done so we can get started!!

    Terri's car has coil over rear springs. Once you loose the leaf springs, there is a whole lot more room back there. :)

    Oh trust me, I know this car all too well. Just didn't want someone who hadn't seen the suspension post try to figure this one out.

    Didn't realize you had an inside line on this car.

    Were you involved in the build? (y)

    He's my best friend who has been putting all his extra time into helping me plan, execute and rebuild the Mity Mav. He also made my personalized door sill plates for Christmas-- they are amazing. Im afraid he probably knows my car better than I do-- ( If you have questions, he probably can answer it -- he knows cars)
    Heres a pic of the door sill plates in case anyone hasnt seen them. 100_2477_original.jpg

    That is some mighty nice machine work. :bowdown:

    Has he thought about marketing sill plates for cars? There might be a good market for personalized sill plates like that.

    They are really nice looking... I have the only personalized set right now.. whoohoo.. BUT he actually has a set that says COMET and one that says MAVERICK -- anyone interested should contact him. They are quality work-- Really a nice touch to a car.
