    well this is my first post i'll try to get it right i have several cars but by far my maverick is my favorite and to add a bigger smile on your face it's slightly faster out of the hole than my callaway vette, that sucks for gm lol, well i hope you guys and gals don't mind me asking alot of questions cause i got them but for now i'll just let you get to know me and my 70 maverick. she is viper blue with a silver grabber stripe on the hood, specifications are a 5.0 crate motor, t-5 5 speed tranny, 8.8 rear 355 gears, 4 wheel disk brakes and cobra r 17's. take care p.s i couldn't load any pics but this is the car i was building for 70maverickgurl

    Welcome to the group. Just joined myself, and I would be very interested in how you went about putting an 8.8 under it. Nice alternative to the 9".
