    Hello everyone,
    My name is Chris, I'm 26yrs old and from London, England.
    I have always been into my classic cars and particularly loved the styling of most 60's to 70's american cars. I particularly liked the Ford Mustang Fastbacks for obvious reasons but could never find one in Britain for a low price! But one day I stumbled across a Maverick (while browsing ebay) and somehow had never seen or heard of them before and instantly liked it. I managed to win the bid and haven't regretted owning it for a second :)

    Anyway thanks in advance for viewing my post and hope to get know some of you in the future.

    Cheers
    Chris
