    No matter what engine is in it, it's still a nice car. We saw it at last years Gathering. Russ does nice work and can fabricate anything you need. When I saw this post I wondered how they got the G&R Maverick in there so fast.:)

    Congrats Russ!

    Came in the mail yesterday, and had to go right to the article as soon as I saw the pic in the index.

    Nice feature, and the car and you certainly deserve it. Your efforts and ingenuity are right in line with Car Craft and their hands-on approach to things.

    Not bashing the guy at all Don. I respect all forms of cars and motors. Its whatever you chose to do with your own car. Sorry if you felt like I was. I better keep my words to myself. I just joined and dont need the boot.

    It is a little ironic that they gloss over the bumpers being "early" ... when, in fact, the front bumper is another thing that a lot of work was put into.

    Magazines rarely get everything right about their features from what I have seen. A couple other cars that I am familiar with have had articles that were close, but not 100%. I guess it all comes from short interview and trying to get the message out.
