    Been thinking lot lately on how i want to paint my 73' Mav. Its mainly going to be a drag car and i want to incorporate Orange and Black into with maybe grey accenting. Heres on pic i found on this site that intrigued, but was still wondering if anyone else had any good ideas?

    That's a stallion maverick. They were made in 1976. I think that would look really good with orange and no stallion logo.

    This was a quick orange tinted stallion that I mocked up several years ago. I did a bunch of different colors and posted them to this site. You should be able to find them in the archives. Enjoy!
