    Thanks for the comments! I found this one sitting in a garage parking lot just outside Scranton, PA, last month. I left my name and told 'em I was interested if it was for sale. The owner called me about a week later. His father gave him the car before he died and he was willing to sell it. He told me the car came from Georgia.

    He likes the big lincolns and GMs. When we transferred the title, he gave me a ride in his '62 buick. That was a heck of a ride! AM radio, chrome, no seat belts!

    Considering how many times I've left my name on cars, someone had to eventually call me back. I never expected it to be this car or for that price!

    I have to give my wife credit for the pics. She shot the photos and made the car look really good!

    It needs some work here and there but it'll be good to drive a Maverick again, since my other projects won't see an engine for a while. When I finish them, it'll be time to rebuild this one!
