    Yesterday I scanned every page plus the front and back covers. I am going to make a PDF file. Maybe Stefan can put it on the message board somewhere.

    if this was a differant "type" of magazine like with ones with advertisers i'd say what the hey post it... however this magazine basis it revune off of newsstand sales. i would support the magazine since it supported the maverick... ;) it already bad enough that i posted huge photos of it.

    A buddy of mine in Austin saw it for sale at a Barnes and Noble Bookstore. (He didn't know I had already seen the article).

    Goes to show the Comet is really the black sheep: My GT was photographed at the same time in DC with the others, but they didn't even mention Mercury's "Maverick with the pointed nose"! ;)

    [Of course I DID own the Maverick Police car before it got painted to look like a police car]

    The Sprint in the article was mine. I have since traded it to a fellow MCCI member, for painting my Comet...

    They took the photos back in February. Nice to see they finally released the article. My Maverick is the blue one on the back cover. I picked up an extra copy at Barnes and Noble.

    I am pretty sure I remember seeing your Maverick when it sold on Ebay. I always thought you should have a Marti Report done, I bet you are a 1 of 1 with that color combination.
