    Hello everyone, pleasure to meet all my fellow Maverick/Comet enthusiasts!

    Allow me to introduce myself, I'm Brian from California. I own a 1973 Maverick LDO V8 2D and beginning the process of restoring my baby after sitting 15 years with a grenade motor. The car was pristine when I parked it but nature took hold and now my baby needs a facelift.

    On the side, I'm a caregiver for my 88 year old grandmother and a play-by-play high schools sports radio broadcaster.

    Once again, pleasure to meet you all. Thanks for having me!

    Welcome, from Portland, OR. Isnt it nice how an old car will just sit there and wait patiently for us to re-notice it? I hope whatever you do to it it therapeutic to all, becomes fond memories, and yields a newish toy to play with.
