    I'm an old drag racer out of late 50's through the 60's. Still love the sport. Love old Fords. I have a 72 maverick I have owned for 36 years. 302 roller motor, top loader 4 speed, tubbed out with a narrowed 9 in with 5:14 locker in back. Never saw winter so body is solid as a rock. Has glass hood with Harwood scoop and glass bumpers. Also have 89 T-bird Super Coupe and 1936 Ford rumble seat coupe.
