    Ok so I know it's not a Maverick but I thought I would share some of my restoration work on my 67 Impala. I've been working on a frame off on it and 5 months ago it went to the painter. Below are some photos. Like I have said before, I bought the Mav to drive while it was in progress. But I like the Maverick so much I'm gonna keep it also.

    I hope so...
    Can't wait to start putting it back together.
    Should have the motor done in a couple weeks. All the machine work is done.

    Looking good. Non-Maverick automotive related posts should be in the "Other Automotive Tech & Talk" section. :)

    They did make an SS with a small block
    also with the big block 396.
    What I have is a Super hooded super sport with z24 option package it is a 427
    385HP it is the rarest. Only 2124 made. Here is a photo of one done.

    Yeah, that's the hood he has. So his must be an SS ?. It doesn't get out much.

    100% original unrestored in great shape.
    Worth big bucks. The hood alone is big bucks

    Un-molested, un-restored, original paint, interior, and drivetrain. I'll pop over and see him, and see if he'll let me snap a few pic's :D
