    I wasn't going to bring this up because it will probably cause it to rain, but I'll risk it. The Cruise on Central is on Saturday. I was going to skip it this season, but I feel the need to drive the car. So I'm putting on the street tires and heading out there. Send me a text if you will be joining me.

    It's tempting, but I've got a bunch of people looking for me on Central.

    Any of you guys have any use for the old back seat out of my car? Its the 73 style so its for the cars that have rear seat belt retractors. Top needs to be recovered, bottom is ok but should cover it to match. Free if you come get it.

    Joe, I must have missed something along the line. Did you aqcuire a 250 that you are going to put in your maverick? Do you have a 200 in there now?

    I was trying to do a secret build but I'm still new to Mavericks so that's gonna be impossible.

    Gene, I have 2 Mavericks, my 1970 white with a 200 which you all have seen and early this year I picked up another 1970 green with a 250. The green one I got in not running condition so that is why I was looking to borrow a carb. The 250 has a 200 carb but it worked just enough to find out the 250 does indeed run which is all I needed to know.

    Based on your track record with replacing the MSD in your car, I would propose that you should have started about two years ago.
