    This is my Maverick video of the day. Hope you enjoy. I cut the gas almost everytime I passed my 18 year son cause I did not have 100% control sometimes and didn't want to pick up a manslaughter charge.

    Two 1973 LDO Mavericks (one 4 Drag one 4 driving like Mad on the roads :) ) also have a 75 6cyl Stock! Ok, well sort of Stock :P
    nothing like driving like mad a man in front of your son. teaching him well i see... lol! ;)

    so when you putting some gears in it? i forgot what it sounds like to have such a long 1st gear. i do miss the time buzzing 65 mph at 2500 rpms instead of 45 at 3000 rpms lol!

    very sweet looking car. I love when people with vision build a 4 door up. I do agree that gears and a posi would be the next logical step.

    Burning Rubber

    That is a real beautiful car!!!!!!!!!!

    It takes real talent to burn rubber.

    If you would like another sticker for the dash I will send you a K&N filter sticker.

    I can appreciate all the work you put into the car.

    You gave me an idea where I can mount a temperature gage, Thanks.

    thanks

    Thanks for the kind words. I do have a 3.55 posi. Regarding the exhaust I have x pipes with mufflers from summit, I forget the brand , they arent summit brand though. I did have my C4 rebuilt but no changes in the gears but it does shift alot quicker then it did. I get a chirp in the auto C4 between 1 and 2. I have leaf springs from JC Whitney, regular shocks up front, but the coils I have in did raise it a bit I think. I keep my rear air shocks at 80 psi----no problems yet.

    I love this car. This week I am finally getting the dyno tune. So my next video will be at the strip. Ill put it up here.

    I only have a couple weeks to have her all done for the big Woodward dream cruise here in Detroit.
