    Nope lol. Went back to school, getting a degree is graphic design. I have to get away from this dead end job. Between working full time, going to school, and having an 11 month old baby, havent had much time for the Mav. I have been finishing up the daily driver Pinto project though.

    I actually want to rework a few things on the Mav with the rear suspension and maybe the front also. But time will tell. Im not around here much anymore because I simply don't have the time.

    That car is wicked so far, what I kinda think would be cool instead of a turbo setup would be a Kenne Bell or Eaton supercharger.



    Just listen to that! lol

    Turbo's sound good too plus they're better for mileage and everything, but I thought one of those superchargers might go better with the Cobra theme. Either way it's gonna be a badass car though...

    I would love to see some pictures of that rear suspension. I am currently trying to decide what to do with mine and I haven't found an aftermarket solution that I like. I definitely want to get rid of the leaf springs.

    For some time, I just wasn't paying much attention to the "Maverick/Comet Projects" threads and I almost missed out on seeing this amazing build:thumbs2:
