    Sent 2 Mavericks off to the shreader, the gold 72 and the brown 76. It is sad sometimes, but all the good parts will live on in other cars. At least I know they were stripped to the bone! :)

    I would say so.

    Sad to see a terrific piece of machinery being shreaded. :yup:

    They ran hard and gave their all. They have now moved on to that big gold interstate in the sky where they can run wide open all day and never have to worry about another traffic jam, flat tire, or run away shopping cart in a parking lot ever again.

    May they rest in pieces. [​IMG]
