    I just bought a 1976 Ford Maverick Stallion, my first ever Maverick (and first ever classic car!) with the intent of restoring it and hopping it up a bit. As you can see, it's a total basket case.

    Apologies, my computer's being stupid, and I can't post pictures for some reason. A Google Drive link with all the pics should help!

    I plan to put in a Ford 302 and a T5, and a Ford 9" out back along with some suspension goodies. Some 5-slot 15x8's in the front and 15x9's in the back, lowered about an inch, with the small bumper conversion and Grabber hood and rear spoiler added. Fox body Mustang seats in the front, some aftermarket gauges, redo the entire interior, and that should be it!

    Should be a fun project! Thanks for having me, and I look forward to sharing my progress with all of you!

    Welcome from a Stallion owner, hopefully you will keep the same paint theme to the car but even if you dont you should enjoy working on it, small steps will get you to your goal with a lot less grief
