    welcome, you must work at home if your goal is 12 seconds, actually you'll find your taking the long way home a lot when you drive the Mav., enjoy the trip!

    No no no. He's not one of us! He hasn't gone streaking through a football game, or been strung upside down from a pole in a public place wearing nothing but his underpants and a bra! I mean, c'mon! Do we let just ANYBODY into our ranks these days!?!?!:mad: :mad: .......j/k. Welcome to the circus. There's all kinds of great advice here..(maybe not a whole lot of wisdom, but great advice ;) :D ). And make sure to check out Ebay for parts. All kinds of good (and not so good) parts there. Oh, and pics are GREAT!

    Thanks to all that have welcomed be aboard and replied, everyone seems very nice and willing to help out.
    I had a 1971 Mustang Mach 1 and sold it, since then I always wanted to restore my first car a (maverick)
    I found a 1972 302 Maverick Grabber in Pomona with original paint and one primered fender, vehicle is inop, but body seems very solid, I don't know if it runs, I just sent the check to transporter and vehicle should be here within two weeks, then all the fun starts.
    My plans are to restore to original condition with little to no modifications.
    I plan on removing the dealer installed ac so if anyone is interested please let me know
    Thanks to all, George

    George, sounds like you found yourself a pretty nice project there. (y)
    I think I may be interested in the A/C unit.

    I will let you know when vehicle arrives to Michigan and send you some photos, keep in mind this is not a factory installed unit, but a dealer add on under dash unit
