    Awsome Maverick

    You know I not crazy about modified cars but, I like yours! Its very nicely done. A lot of thought went into your car. The back end is awsome! I could live without the louvers but the do look nice. If there glass mounted you could display with or without them. I think if Ford were to make a Boss 302 Maverick, your car would be perfect! Another magazine grade Maverick! :clap:

    I agree Ray.....luv the grabber blue!
    Probably my favorite "traditional" color of all time!
    I think you have done one hell of a job.......there is going to be no mistaking yours.
    Be proud!

    Well, the green one is mine also. That's the one I bought in 1974. Call me a pig if you want but the wife isn't getting that one either. I've had that longer than I've had her. It's been in storage for a few years and the paint has gone bad. I've got to pull it out and strip and repaint it soon. Too many projects going on for now. I've got a 70 Boss 302 Mustang I started quite some time ago and have yet to finish too.

    I agree 100%!!!

    Ray, I have always appreciated the work that went into your Grabbers. In the past, I have even used some of the pics of your cars as wallpaper on my computer as inspiration. Way to go!!! Nice job!!! (y)(y)

    I too agree with everyone...Looks great!!!! I had heard louvers existed for Mavs. but have never seen them before. Do you know what co. made them or are they one offs?I would love to find some for my Mav. Any info on louvers would be nice.

    Very nice....I love the rearend, those tailights & gas cap are awesome. Would be nice if the louver was removeable. I've always liked grabber blue also. Good job! Nothing better than a restomod Maverick or Comet.
