Hi my name is Joe, (login name molly). I'm joining into your community to share and exchange information with you. I'm 65 years old, I race gokarts with my son and 4 grandchildren. I experiment and build our race engines for karts, as well as automobiles. Currently, I am assembling the Maverick from a gutted car to a streetable machine with updated drivetrain components, such as acustom built Mustang II front suspension with rack and pinion. It has 11 inch discs upfront, 9 inch rear end, and any choice of gears from 3 to 1 down to 3.5 to 1. Stroker engine AOD transmission. I am definately not into bling, but definately into function. I love staight forward, clean cut, hot rods. I will be enquiring about options for installing a different break activation system. Looking forward to sharing information. PS. Does anybody have any information about dicast Prostock Mavericks. Best regards, Joe
