    This is my second Maverick project. I started one with my son about 12 years ago. It was a 77' that we rescued from the crusher. It was ate up with rust but we took it in and went to work on it. We back halved it and put in a narrowed 9". Then we started to do a V8 swap when my son met is now wife and started having kids. The car went into storage and eventually get sold. Now my son is financially able to start a project and again chose a Maverick. This time he found a 73' and it is way to nice to cut up. The 250 I6 is going to be mouth balled and we are going to do a 302 swap. Looking forward to sharing and picking brains.

    Welcome from South-Western PA. Good luck with your project. There are a lot of individuals on here that should be able to help you with any questions you may have while doing your project.
