HI, it's my sons car, his daily driver. 1973 Ford Maverick. Original six cylinder car now with a warmed over 306 small block. Mustang bullit 17's, lowered and a long way to go..lol!

Whereabouts in GA? There's a pretty sick blue street/strip Mav in the Augusta area that's pretty clean.

Yours looks nice and straight. This "long way to go"... what are you planning?

[badbrad73]

I'm in Rome, 'bout 70 miles NW of Atlanta. Oh, some more suspension work. Nothing elaborate just sway bars stiffer springs. Paint and body work, probably a hood scoop. Pretty basic stuff really.
Its a 17 year-old's daily transportation, so nothing extreme for now.

We just did a mini tub to the back of a comet a couple weeks ago. an did the paint work on his daughters 73 comet.

[badbrad73]

Thanks guys. The car is a long way from finished but brett, my son, loves it. We are taking it to the strip Sunday just for fun.

Aw you took the six out?

Turbo intercooled 300 CI six cylinders are the hotness!

[Ralph LoGrasso]

Welcome to the site.

[badbrad73]

It's a pretty big project to put a 300 in a maverick, its so long. Ours had a stock 250 with a holley-weber 2v and 6 into 1 header. I like the sixes too but it's my sons car and he wanted that V8 rumble.
Thanks for the welcome guys.

Follow this plan and your Mav will be a hit!

IMO I'd skip the hood scoop unless you scored a Grabber hood and go for clean unsightly sources for fresh air.

[badbrad73]

I'd say this example is as good as it gets. A properly done Maverick is second to none in my book.

[Mr.VENGEANCE]

thats a nice one!

SShhhh, You'll cause the prices to go up on Mavericks! jk Glad to see another Maverick on the board. They have great potential. Can't wait for mine to be done.
