    Sup everybody,
    I was just looking for parts for my mav when I came across this sweet site so I decided to join. I've owned my 74' mav 302 V-8 for about a year now and have slowly been restoring it, but since im 17, still in highschool, and constantly having football practice, or working it is hard to get time to work on it! So far I have been able to prep and paint it, put some ss krager rims and new tires on(and since one of my football coaches owned the tire shop I got a good deal on the rims and tires), and of course being a teen I had to put a sweet sound system in. I plan to do most of my restoring after I get out of highschool (which seems so far away!) such as a new tranny, drop in a new engine, redo interior, all the real expensive stuff, etc.
    Ill add some pictures in when I get time!

    Best Days

    :Welcome: You will like it here! You remind me of my self. I was 17 when I bought my first new car a '74 Maverick Grabber. I was very popular in high school mainly because of the car. It was a 302, bucket seats, floor shift and it was red/black. I also added Cragar SS wheels. It quickly became part of my idenity and it still is today 30 years later. The car I have now is almost the same except its white/black. Make the most of each day in school and with your Maverick. My days in high school with my Maverick were the best days in life. I hope they will be yours to! GrabberJoe
