    Hey All!

    This is Brian from Emporia KS, and as you may have guessed from my username, I am planning to restore my mom's maverick. it's a 1970 with the six cylinder. My goal is to have it completely restored (and hopefully showroom fresh) before my mom turns 50 so I can give it to her for her birthday present. I'll be asking lots and lots of questions, so keep an eye out.

    ~Brian

    My bumper pretty much fell off, with rust disease and a good hit from an unknown object by the previous owner it was only being held up by one mount...:biglaugh:
