    74 Maverick - 82 Ford Ranger,one of the first ones made!
    I actually was lucky enough to have two! One was a 49 Ford convertible that ran great, but had more rust than the Titanic! The other was a 55 Buick 2dr hardtop that was in nice shape, but needed an engine. Back then you could get a good running engine for $50! :)
