    For those fans of how these cars have survived. Here is a pic of my unrestored, yet modified 76 Stallion in the driveway of where it went home on its first day when I bought it, way back in 75. The home in the background is my Mom's where we moved in 1972. Pic taken 4th of July weekend 08. Car landed in that same spot when newly brought home. Mom still lives there. Maverick is always welcome home.:thumbs2:

    Yes Dan, best lookin grass anywhere. Mom still mows the front yard at age 81, backyard with walkout basement and huge yard is done by younger dudes. Home is next to golf course. Mom sure is proud of her yard.

    Mom didn't say, 'Don't block my station wagon with that thing, I have to go to the market soon!' ???

    (yes, I was always parked in Mom's way.)

    Cool, Dan.
