    just want to get some ideas for my project. i have a 74 4 door. i've decided to go themed to psychobilly/rockabilly. im thinking flat black with flames near the headlights. maybe skull and crossbones on the front doors. anyone wanna drop an idea for this?

    nice. i just have an odd attraction to the black and whites. i got the mav because it was a black and white. very amateur paint job but still a black and white

    My first idea was to paint the maverick black or gunmetal gray but since it was already orange I think I like the idea of orange with white. Not really sure yet, I still haven't really been able to even start rebuilding the car yet.

    The FUZZ are here ! wow 30 years since I uttered those words. Had to do it.

    Thanx for serving you got a tough job these days, I remember the days when locals would run me in my 69 SS 396 for a couple miles with their 440's. My grandfather owned a diner and booked numbers for a few of them :cool:. They would see me, flash the lights one time and the race was on ! Could you imagine getting caught in this day and age doing that? I guess it's for the best.


    sorry off topic just stoked a few nice memories for me, carry on.

    Lmao Dfitz my brother calls me The Fuzz amongst other names. Sounds like it was fun racing them, I'm sure I wouldn't have a job long racing people:p

    72-mav I don't know :huh: I would probably talk to you long enough to get some cheap parts or some help with my maverick :D

    Flat black is a great color. I just think it needs a little more maybe flames or other accent done in gloss with a little flake. Have fun, John

    I haven't really started so I'm not needing anything right now, I'm working 6 days a week until around July 15th so I haven't really had time to dedicate to the car although I plan on getting up early in the morning and going out to my Uncles to work on the Maverick, we're going to stuff a 351 in it :dance: but have to get the stands and belly bar out of the Comet first. Hopefully I remember the camera so I can start a new thread. Sorry for getting your thread so far off topic.
