    looking for one!
    Hey everyone,

    I just surfed into this site and I have found it to be quite cool. I don't own a Mav or Comet, but I am currently looking for a new project and it just could be one of these. (I just sold my '51 Tudor)

    My next project will be a street/strip car since we (married for 9yrs, no kids) have a cruiser car ('67 Galaxie 500 convert), so the next one will be for going fast:D .

    I look forward to learning more from you all!

    Mike

    Mike, good luck in your search for a street/strip car. I believe the Maverick or Comet is an excellent choice for your project. The car's light weight lends itself to achieving a great h.p./weight ratio while still having all the 'creature comforts' (if so desired).

    Read these other guy's comments about the 'oogle factor' on the street. I think they might help in your decision making process.

    More importantly, you won't find a better support group! (y)

    Thanks everyone for the welcome! I have already gotten some responses to my "want" ad. I think I am going to like it here.

    Mike

    BTW I don't think I am going to be getting any of the cars that have been tossed my way... so keep your eyes peeled for me:)
