    Beautiful car! I love everything about it - color, wheels, stance, engine, etc. I hope my '72 Comet looks this good when I finish it. I've always thought that the Mavericks/Comets were a beautiful design in their simplicity. You don't have to do much to make 'em cooler! Thanks for sharing the pix.
    Fordially,

    Thanks, Tom I like it too. I was a bare shell when I found it. Took me 15 months to finish.

    You did outstanding job on the restoration Ranger! IIRC you brought it to MCCI Roundup in Springfield , IL. Pictures really don't do it due justice -- up close, in person view shows attention to detail...

    It's awesome and my inspiration. I have acquired a 70 Boss 302 block, 2 cranks, intake, 69 heads, valve covers, 1970 - 780 carb. Will be looking for a set of manifolds and will have to decide on piston and rods since I don't have either. Hope to have mine done someday. - Matt
