    Well I did it, I just drove home a 1970 Maverick (90 miles) it had been sitting for 5 years, after a lot of cleaning, plugs, dist. cap and some fresh gas it came to life. The drive home was uneventful just a belt squeel that I'll fix this afternoon.
    A couple year ago I picked up a 1989 lincoln mk7 for it 5.O HO motor and a dick brake rearend. I hadn't even thought about a Maverick until a few weeks ago and the more I thought about it the more I liked the idea. Everybody has a mustang and I wanted something a little differant, soooo
    here we go on another adventure. I will use your forum to death so to speak. pics to come later.
