    Hi

    I'm new to the whole Maverick thing.
    I just purchased my first one yesterday.
    A 1975 2DR with a straight 6.
    It's beauiful, in great condition.
    Like new original paint and only 59,654 org miles!!
    The interiors imaculent and I think I'm in love!

    when I start fixin' it up real nice.
    My husband seems to think it's the uglest
    car in the world. I beg to differ. Oh, well.:)

    Glad to see another Maverick convert! Now we just need to convert your husband! :D Seriously, has he ever seen the potential that this cars have? Most people still think of these cars as grocery getters, but once they are modified, they look nothing of the sorts . . . just good old American Muscle.
