    Wassup guys.. I jus got this 70 maverick and plan to drop a 351w into it within the next month...posi with 3.73 gears and a c-4 tranny

    anyone have any ideas on a good bench seat that i could pop in? (from another car) i also need door panels and a carpet kit...

    any problems with a 351 conversion i should need to know?

    Cool. I'm up in the North Bay - Sebastopol. I come down to Fremont and San Jose every so often to visit friends.

    Good luck on the swap - I'm about to do the 351W swap as well.

    Agreed. The hood looks pretty cool! When you sell it I may be interested, depending on seeing some bigger pics.
