Modular Maverick Build page

ModMav71 · 2009-08-21, 14:22

ok guys finally going to start a real build page. As many of you know the project has been off and on for the last several years. Over the past couple months it's been reving up. I've been getting parts together for about a month now, and purchased a complete wrecked but running 96 Cobra for parts as well. I basically have almost everything to get it running minus a radiator and hoses.

Changes:
It will now have the Cobra's 8.8 w/4.10 gears disc brakes, and Cobra front brakes with 13" rotors. Wiring is going to be all Cobra none of the factory Maverick stuff will remain. Reason for that is I will be using the Cobra cluster, pedal setup, steering column, sound system, fuel system, and going to try a fit the entire a/c system in the Maverick as well that way as far as the wiring goes it will all be plug and play.

Earlier this week I purchased the front and rear seats. I was not crazy about the Cobra tan leather seats and really wanted something non-power. After looking aftermarket I starting looking OEM and what I ended up with was Hyundia Tiburon 03+ seats. These are black leather, manual adjustments, fit great, and are very comfortable. I got the whole seat front and rear for $200. Im very happy with them and now you have another option for your Mavericks.

I will keep posting pics here is what I have for now.

If you know of anyone else looking for one let me know. I have the whole setup out of this Cobra I'll let go for a good deal. I even have a video of it running before I took it out.
