    Awesome car, love the color. Makes me happy to see people investing this much in these underappreciated cars. I have so much fun watching people's reactions vs. the other more popular cars from this era.

    Replaced the needle and seat. Hopefully the float level will now be consistent.

    Slow and steady progress on the Gauge Cluster. Finding a 3-3/8 and 2-1/16 hole saw has been the most challenging thing so far.

    Thanks! I've always been drawn to the less desired cars. We have a restomod '78 King Cobra also. It's interesting to see people just trying to figure out what the Maverick is. lol... The car is/was totally debadged. I recently found a nice Grabber grille emblem that I restored and put in the car to help out those who couldn't figure it out. :)

    Since you had all the parts loose why not change those return springs?
