Your car is coming along nicely - where did you get your locking gas cap from?

Thank you folks!!!
that is a mustang 68 bumper..but dont fit properly in a maverick.. I had to make several alterations to fit...

The first thing I did when I bought the car, was to alter a photo in photoshop to decide what I would do. and major changes are the rear bumper, the front bumper and rear lights.
I think this bumper more clean and more smooth than the original maverick bumper.it is just my opinion..

I wanted a Maverick slightly "newer" but without losing its identity, I know some people will hate, but to my taste is good, just as I thought beforebananaman:bananaman

Now I hope my first idea to front bumper works so well than rear bumper did..lets see!!!

The "original" fase 2 tail lights...and bumper



My first idea in photoshop...


the job done!! with camaro lights and mustang bumper





MAV1970,the cap is right..I bought in ebay..the cap and the funnel

cheers!!

 

VERY nice work!! Love the tail lights! Keep it up

 

Thank you!! I will

 

Are those tail lights from a 69 camero ? They look awesome

 

Umm.... I never knew I wanted to move to Brazil until I saw all the awesome mavericks being built down there. And found out the maverick is "THE MUSCLE CAR" of Brazil is this true?

I love your build topolino

 

Yes!

Thank you! I saw in some video .. fast and furious .. maybe .. in fact, Mavericks and Dodge Charger are loved here since the seventies .. and hard to find .. between 73 and 79 Ford built 108,106 units in all versions .. 4,6 and 8 cyl .. much less than 10.000 was V8! versus 2 million in the U.S. ... are our only muscle cars

 

Fast and furious...never even seen that movie series.

Might be where they were quoting from, I was reading about the maverick being big in Brazil from this forum actually.

And there is a old thread , where a member was trying to sale these awesome parts that they only make down that way... but the shipping, seems to of been a major buzz kill. I still want some of the parts in that thread.

Shipping only is a problem if the part is big..like a hood or side skirts...the main problem is the prices!! Yesterday a saw a tach for 750 usd!! Wtf?!!!

 

WTF indeed... lol

Off to bed I go to dream of all the things I could do to my maverick

 

Want to sell your old tail lights?

 

I already did..for a forum member...sorry!
