What did you do to your Maverick or Comet today

Waiting on a mini-meet with David Cooper ( Mercurycruizers ) later this afternoon on his way back to Pittsburgh from his vacation in Rhode Island

 

I hope you mean you bought that truck to tow your maverick around.

I would think thats nuts to spend $19k on a truck then take the motor out and install it in your maverick lol it would be different if you did thats for sure

now that youve got that nice gas saver truck you can break it in by coming back down to california

 

put new foam in the heater ducts and got a new blower motor, ready to start installing everything

 

Haha yeah its to tow the maverick. I already have a crate 306 ready to drop in to the maverick that would be stupid. I'd go coyote route if I had 19k to drop on a engine hah

 

What kind of trailer do you have to haul the Maverick?
I tow'd my car up to Portland and back about a month ago (1550miles) and averaged over 15mpg with my truck..................get the Maverick finished and tow it down here to see what kind of mpg you get with your new Nissan................plus we could have a mini meet in California!

 

you can count me and curb hopper in on a mini meet maybe I can convince the yuba city marrysville guys to come out and theres a few other guys around that if there cars are running might come out. then theres a couple of racers that have mavs.

we can even see if red72grabber is up for a mini meet depends on his back. enough of us get together I doubt he would be able to resist coming out. he might suffer through the next couple of days but hell prolly come out.

 

I had a very nice visit from Coop and his wife Kathy today - a mini meet :Handshake

then I had a chance to figure out what I was going to have to do to finish up my left rear quarter panel so out came my spare quarter panel and my cutting wheel

 

Hard to bring the car when it looks like this

 

Drove over to see Todd, Supermav, and picked up a few parts. Didn't get to stay long unfortunately, we left home a bit late and had another stop to make.

 

yes true... but can a grabber hood bolt up to a regular maverick? (1970)

 

Yes, the Grabber hood will bolt right on.

 

Didn't mean you had to bring it down this year...............how about next?

 

When I get it running, and going -- Sure why not. I'd love to drive down.

I am planning on next year it'll be done.

 

I would definitely do my best not to miss it. I may have to double up on my meds for the next couple of days after though.

 

awe come on just flinstone it

hey steve theres that glass half full. keep it half full and youll be better one day. even if you are medicated out of your mind lol
