    Cool car. You might want to look at that cross member. Appears to have been hacked. Check it out for safety and drive the wheels off of it..

    Trip meter, factory turn signals, built in fog lamps, VERY upscale ride in it's day and still way cool today.

    I'm a big fan of the small block Chevy, but it just ain't right in this car. I'd still drive it just like it is, but even I wouldn't open the hood in public.

    I noticed that, lots of checking to do. First thing is get some brakes on it.

    Pretty cool !! You can certainly see the period Ford body lines. I really like the taillights .

    Sweet! rare find, thats luxury, a nice Ford small block or flathead would be awesome in there. I agree with 48 Chubby I wouldn't open that hood with that chevy in there.
     
  18. WOW- that must have been some Maverick! Never seen one of those, must be rare. A car that rare deserves to be done right- and driven often! Enjoy.

    Good deal on the trade. Like others have said that's probably the first time I've seen a coupe. All the ones I've seen were sedans. Nice ride.

    Congrats on the trade. A quick trip to the pressure washer or chrome shop will correct the cosmetic sins committed by the previous owners. She's gonna be a sweet ride for sure.

    Get the sawzall out and give her a lil haircut! Sweet lil ride otherwise though! Just dress up the 350 (i hate them too) with some period parts and drive her until it blows, then put something cool in her
