    he built a custon maverick from a jo-han model that i had, and built it almost identical to my '71. he did a really good job on it. it was painted with the exact same colors as my color, features a 302 under the hood, black bench seat interior and a nice chrome shifter handle as featured on my 5sp. all i can say is that i owe him one.... ill just never tell him that :p

    Okay, since you don't have a grabber hood for the model, you gotta put that humongous scoop on your real car!!! Thank your brother for that too! :biglaugh:


    Seriously though, It really looks great! (y)

    Now I just need to get off my butt and get mine done. I bought a 68 Shelby model to get a hood and tail lights so I can try to duplicate it. Gonna be fun if I can just get the time now.

    I only got one and you can't have it.
    They've been listing some on eBay. Have you seen them?
