[ATTACH] Does anyone make that rear spoiler? I actually like it quite a bit better than the grabber spoiler.
To be fair, a race between my Camino and my Maverick would be like an Olympic gold-medal-winning runner against a pregnant woman in a wheelchair....
Good news. The police called me at 1 AM this morning asking if I could come pick up my car in half an hour. Apparently some drunken kids just joy...
'Lo and welcome.
I'm sure she's either in Mexico or in a million parts by now, but it was an ugly red El Camino, the driver's side bed was in primer and you can...
So.. I'm back under fairly unhappy circumstances. I kept my Maverick while I was driving and working on my El Camino, I'd wanted that car for a...
Thought I'd check in, it's been a (short) while. The Maverick is running great and the Comet is still... eh.. eating all the cash I throw at it....
If you're just looking to free up the power just take the belt off. I know when I started messing with mine I ended up pulling ALL of the...
Welcome. One more for AZ.
The hold down was just facing the wrong way. On a related (or unrelated) note, I lost my oil cap while changing my valve cover gasket. Can I...
I think the best/easiest 5spd swap is the T-5, no idea on cost, you may very well need to junkyard it. On www.fordmaverick.com they have an...

...well, I'll check here soon. But if that's it then I suppose I'm a moron. Thanks guys.
Yeah, I read Jalopnik a lot (I love the Camino) but they don't seem to like the Maverick too much. I read that first one a while back and just saw...
So's I tried to fix some vacuum leaks. That kinda made it better, but it made the car feel.. off. Timing-wise, that is. So I went ahead and...
VIN numbers weren't standardized until the 80s which makes it VERY hard to track down the history of the car. Sorry I don't have much else to...
My '74 idles at around 850 because it idles rough any lower (vacuum leaks). The brakes really aren't all that hot, she lunges forward when I let...
Yeah.. it was much more stupid than that. My return "spring" which is a hammer that limits how far the throttle can open at idle was stuck on the...
Heya, I replaced the carburetor base gasket because I had some massive vacuum issues (if I placed my hand over the carb the car actually ran...
Nope.
