    Hey, Stefan.
    Maybe we ought to have a section for book discussions. Car books!


    I ordered the new 'How to Build Ford Restomod Street Machines' from Amazon.com.

    I have looked through it a bit, nice articles on mods. Derrick Yees light blue '73 Maverick has a nice story. Good book so far.

    I like the idea, I have a few car books on my shelf. Since it wont be Maverick specific, I could make it a sub forum of the Miscellaneous Forum. What shoould the sub forum be called? Automotive Literature, Auto Book Club..... Im open to suggestions..

    'Readers Corner'. Maybe bring magazine article suggestions into this as well.

    Magazines would be good too, as I have an old list of magazines that covered Mavericks.

    Sounds like a really cool idea.

    My uncle told me he had a Maverick Haynes manual and some other kind of old Maverick specific book he was going to give me. Unfortunately they burned with everything else in his house.

    After Rick's Book Club, Readers Corner sounds the best.

    And maybe get a section in here that shows stuff like wiring diagrams/frame dimensions/ads for Mavericks and Comets and/or links to such sites that have this information. I have run into a link for wiring diagrams that I cannot find at this moment but I will post it (when I find it) if it is okay with Stefan. :D

    I think the books cover it, but that seems more suitable for the 'Tech' section to me.
    The Chiltons/Hayes books have some diagrams, that can be referenced in the 'Readers' Corner'.
