    Hey folks,
    Been looking at this site for a while but I haven't taken the time to register. I have a '71 Maverick Grabber 302 w/ new manifold, ignition, carb. Looking at new wheels and need a new rear spoiler (and paint job, of course). I'll see if I can figure out how to get pics within a post soon. For now try http://www.flickr.com/photos/clutz74/2463613032/[​IMG]

    Thanks, guys (or girls as it may be),

    Ray, where did you get the taillights for your blue car? They look sharp.

    Thanks! I put a 68 Shelby tail light panel in with the Shelby lights. You can get a better idea of what I did if you click my restoration pics link below my sig.

    Very cool. I've always thought the stock lights were kinda weak, and mine are getting to the point of having to be replaced. I'll have to get creative.

    There are a few threads on here where quite a few people have gotten creative. Do a search on tail light swap and you'll probably pull up a few of the threads and see some cool pics.
