    for the past couple of days ive been working on my '71 after getting it painted. i've managed to get the interior reinstalled, changed the dash, heater box, windshield, windshield weatherstripping/trim, installed new carpet and get my spoiler mounted. these pictures are big, that's why i only posted a link so 56K members be warned, lol.

    here's some interior shots. it's not perfect by any means but it's getting there....

    Looks good. Maybe a pinstripe to break up the body lines is all the out side needs. And I bet some black duck tape would fix that seat until you get it recovered :D

    Hey, the other night I was watching the movie "Moving Violations" and near the end they were all running down the street, and turned the corner, and there was a blue and white Maverick just like yours!!

    Looking good David. I think the driver side seat back is good in the 70 Grabber that I got from Mavaholic. Since I got the black buckets, I won't need it. Maybe I can hook you up. - Matt
