Pics of my 70 Maverick parts car (left,   almost unsalvagable black interior, crappy repaint done many years ago, lots of bondo, used as a mail route car along with the Torino, last tagged in '86 but still running), my 71 Maverick (right, swapping 200 I6 from the 70 into the 71, Winter Blue color code Q), and my 94 Lincoln Mark VIII (Silver/Gray Leather, misfiring 4.6, bad trans; max speed about 35 mph, 143k miles. Trust me, I have PLENTY of GM though, you can see some in the background. Nobody would probably ever talk about any of my other vehicles here, since they're almost all GM.------------- Griffin 1973 Gran Torino station wagon 1972 Gran Torino 4 Door 1971 Maverick 2 Door |

I have no idea what I'm going to do with it, too expensive to change the tranny. It was a great car though, fast. ------------- Griffin 1973 Gran Torino station wagon 1972 Gran Torino 4 Door 1971 Maverick 2 Door |

Mavericks and a Mark 8. Props. You'd get along real well with that Dave guy here in Wichita Falls if you can tolerate a Mustang II Cobra and a Torino Elite as well... ------------- 08 Uplander LS, 262K, broken again 08 Explorer EB, 195K, for the wife still looking for another something |
