    I agree w/ all those who say they like the car. Great job on the resto mod. I think it's one of the nicer cars I've seen, since I been on this forum; at least frm what I can see of the exterior...
    How abt some interior shots w/ that - I think u said Nikon camera?

    Two 1973 LDO Mavericks (one 4 Drag one 4 driving like Mad on the roads :) ) also have a 75 6cyl Stock! Ok, well sort of Stock :P
    killer! two thumbs up! but not to keen on the tail lights, not because they are camaro but kinda looks like a sq in a round peg... shape wise. but props for doing it!

    RPF1s a very good choice of wheel! i don't think people know the half of what kind of wheel that is! hate to say it and you know as well most aftermarket wheels guys have on their cars here are made in china with an "american name"

    EVO gets two thumbs down though! lol!

    Gotta love GREEN! That's the first time I've ever seen Camero lights in a Maverick...Huh, looks good. The whole combo looks really good! Im usally not into newer style wheels on Mavericks, but with the dark green paint, they look really good! O, and you mite want to look into a career in photoghy, REALLY NICE PICS!

    As for the paint, honestly I painted it like 3 years ago and when I went to buy the paint just picked it out of the book, some random color :)

    As for rear end, off a 75 maverick 5 lug original drums, then I put 97 Explorer disk brakes, 3 bolts lined up on the bracket to the rear end and I drilled out one of the holes on the bracket
