    Well then I guess since I need 8 more posts I'll tell you how I came across my maverick. I've wanted to buy an old car and fix it up since I was twelve but I never did anything about it until recently I was searching craigslist, ebay and such for an old camaro or mustang something old that everyone's seen like a thousand time. My dad walks in and asks me what I'm looking at, sees I'm looking for old cars and tells me to look up Mavericks I did, I fell in love with the looks. A few days later I was searching craigslist (for mavericks this time) stumbled upon my now "dream car". $1200 later and here I am now about to embark on my first car rebuild.:dance: anyone have an idea how I can get 7 more posts?

    It's not that hard. Just start reading different posts, respond as you see fit. You'll be there in no time. Good luck on your car. Looking forward to seeing the pics.
