    Check out the media gallery. There are hundreds of pics. Would you like to expand on what you mentioned about Johnny Lightning?

    Yea I am in charge of finding photos for 12 cars. I have found all but the '71 non grabber Maverick. We are bringing back "your cars the star" to our Muscle Cars USA and Classic Gold series. So each car that I find we are making it into a JL. I am new to the site and it has me restricted. I cannot start any threads to get the word out. I contacted Craig the editor he said he would be putting a post up for me. Maybe you can help me me too? We are offering some cash and a full set of cars for photo rights.

    Very interesting! If you have contacted Steve, you have the right guy. There are some beautiful cars belonging members of the forum. Mine is not one of them due to restoration issues. LOL.

    May I suggest you also include a Comet, especially a Comet GT. I'll defer to Steve on on the rest of this but I'd suggest a contest for folks to send in their photos. Good luck.

    M.D.

    I have talked to Austin on the phone. He is looking for a bone stock 1971 Maverick 2-door to make a Johnny Lightening diecast car out of. If anybody can help him out...that would be great. This IS for real.

    Here is an update:

    They are looking for a 1971-1973 NON Grabber to be chosen to be made into a Johnny Lightning die cast replica.

    The have a color preference:

    Prefer no red but will consider them.
    No yellow
    No orange
    No white
    No green

    There you go.

    Well that sorta limits the field as far as colors go, I have lots of pics of my car before all the alterations.
