Brazilian Maverick rebuild

Are your front A-arms maverick specific? and did the sway bar links come with the suspension kit. If it is a mustang kit like many of us adapt you can cut the links down to the 4 1/2 inches on the mavericks easily to make them match.

Also a quick question, are you going to use the North American maverick emblems that you posted or are you going to find some Brazilian emblems?

 

Thank you markso125!!

My front suspension will be tubular but I will keep the stock sway bar...

I bought these links on ebay as being "maverick."

"MAVERICK (70-77) Polyurethane Sway Bar End Links"
I still have the original links, but as I'm changing all parts of the car, I would like to put the new links as well.

If I use the links longer like that,do you think will work?or I really need to cut a little?

about emblems..
These emblems were the second part that I bought for the car .. the first was the shift Tremec ball.

but I still not sure if I will use the emblems .. the first part that was bought but it will be the last to be installed ...

maybe I even use them! lets see..

thank you man!!

cheers!

 

and the most important missing part!! Finally I found it!! bananaman

 

nice and shiny!!!

 

and beautiful!!!

 

Nice work on all those sheet metal parts. Did u media blast the hood, deck lid and doors?
BTW - are u RC Pilot?

 

Were did you get the hood hinges? I would love a set of these for my build. Any info would be helpful.

 

Mojo I'm sorry, I do not understand the question about what I will do in the hood, doors, etc. ..

by the way I am not a pilot, I try! a lot
but I'm better building vehicles in scale

here are most of my buildings

Cruzin Illusion,those hinges are made here in Brazil, for Maverick, plug and play ... are beautiful but very expensive .. I saw some models for mustang on ebay for less than half the price I paid .. maybe fit...or not,i dont know..but if you are interested I can do a bridge between you and the builder..

cheers

 

Paint removal Sand Blast or Chemical?
