    I got a new headliner, dash, and ignition box, and new 2 1/2 exhaust with turn downs right after the muffler. Hopefully I will be taking it in to get the interior done, and later the ignition installed and the carb dyno tuned and tested. Hope everyone had a great christmas.

    My 76' Maverick got buried under 12 inches of snow and ice for Christmas. It still is. I guess Santa was pissed at me. :(

    My wife says it is xmas everyday for my Stallion. But I do have about $2800.00 worth of parts that are waiting to go on it. Add another $1500.00 for new wheels and tires and it should be ready.

    I got mine new crager s/s wheels and cooper cobra radials.
    15-8 wheels with 255/60-15s for the rear and 15-7 with 215/60-15s for the front. They really make it look good.

    You got to be careful of an idle car, it turns into a storage shed/ work bench.
