    hello i have a 71 mav that's been restored at this moment, hopefully i will have it done by the end of the year. it's very peculiar mav since it came with factory installed scoop, hood tach, and american racing antimony (?) wheels. hope i can post pictures of the progress!
    yours truly!

    Hmm, hood mounted tach, and that scoop?

    Dare I say, "Shelby Maverick"?



    Oops. I just read this thread (dealer add-ons).


    Welcome to the site. Nice car.

    thanks to everyone, it's great to have this feeling of belonging, mavericks have been overlooked and despised by most people, and it's fantastic to talk to people who don't ask "why a maverick and not a mustang or a camaro?" but say "nice looking car".

    I hear ya. I used to get the "WHY" a lot a while back but no longer. Now I get more "WOW, I never knew a Maverick could look like that!" (y)
