I noticed that it is too low but that shouldn`t be too hard to change, the rest of the car looks awesome.

No, I wouldn`t buy it but I do really like them, I had afew of them many yrs ago.
My 56 is still at my friend`s getting final body prep for paint and tho it`s getting closer it`s still coming along very slow, he`s busy and doesn`t have a lot of time on work on it.

Remember the "Maverick Grabber"? What a fast little car that was. And looked good too.
I smoked many a Pacer and Hornet back in the day.
Stayed well clear of the "Boss 302" tho. I don't think he was playing fair
anyway cuz nobody could smoke him.

Happy Thursday mornin'all. Nice pic Morris. It looks like a Maverick, by the badge on the frt fender. There's probably a few of those tucked away in some garages, in the old parts of town. Have a great day guy's.
