    Hey guys my names Patrick and I just found this forum actually. I have been working on a maverick build for the last 6 months. Its a 74 maverick 2 door and I just finished the motor and cleared up all the body rot. Engine is a 302 V8 with z303 cam- Headman Long Tube Headers- Dual straight pipes w/Super 44 Flowmasters- Holly Intake & 600cfm Carb- Mallory Distributor (6 months new)- Pro Comp Timing Chain & Gears- C4 Auto. Transmission-3500 Stall Converter- B & M Shift Kit- Tac with shift light- 76' Cobra Hood Scoop-fully functional. Still need to do up the interior but I got hooked up with autokrafters for my parts so I've been going through them for everything. Just wanted to introduce myself and say I am in love with this car.

    thanks guys always nice to have a warm welcome. most people on the classic car forums give me crap because they dont think a 26 year old guy should be restoring something.
