    Has anyone seen one yet?

    Reason I ask is because I was told this morning at 5am at work that my buddy seen one at Wal-Mart in Hayward ,CA. I said no way! He said yes ,and that He would go check it out today, I told him to buy it if it is in fact a Maverick.

    My trip to Wal-mart left me empty-handed ... not a Maverick in sight. There is a 1/24th Blue Olds 442 with a white stripe that looks just like a Grabber stripe .. that was the closest thing I saw ...

    Talked with my buddy today, said that he went back to Wal-Mart and that the maverick model was gone, but would check again, I swear I think he was seeing things. ( but then again he does collect hot wheels etc. so he does know about these things) he goes to all the targets, K-marts etc looking for certian cars, and has gotten me some maverick hot wheels and Johnny lighting etc, But if it were out there someone on this board would have one by now (don't think?)

    I'm pretty sure that's Bill "Maverick" Golden's old Fury or Coronet drag car (some old Mopar) This was before his "The Little Red Wagon" wheelstander.

    But yeah, it woulda made a pretty ugly Maverick! LOL

    Yuck, I hate that too.

    I could never figure that out. I've talked to a couple of guys before, and they would tell me I'm restoring a classic Ford. Then I would be like. (y)

    Then he say's I'm putting a 350 Chevy in it. :tsk: :slap: :coco:
