    Bought front and rear valances from Nick. Nice parts. Can't wait to put them on the Mav.
    Had a good time talking about Mavericks and cars. Thanks Nick.

    I put the red Comet GT up on blocks to get it ready for a power disc swap and front end rebuild. Will take the fenders off tomorrow to change out the springs and take the front end apart. First activity in 3 years on the car.
