    Been working a little bit at a time on the orange Maverick. This first picture shows I have the rear of the car just about done. Installed the trunk lid, tailights, rear bumper, valence, and rear spoiler. Also have the inside rear wiring harness installed as well as the gas filler neck and the gas cap.

    In this picture you can see I have installed all the glass, drip rail trim, window trim, side sport mirrors, door handles, chrome boomerangs, as well as the upper door weatherstripping and the window felt and beltline weatherstripping.

    I am kinda starting at the rear of the car and working my way forward. Next up........interior. Just waiting on my new carpet to arrive.

    Don't know if it will be ready by then or not. If I bring it...definitely a trailer queen. Will have to be an enclosed trailer.
