    Anyone know this car? I really like the chin spoiler.

    I like that valence. It covers up the ugliest part of the front end.

    Neat touch doing a "reversed black-out" on the headlight rings ... hides the fact that there is no hood trim strip.

    Great stance on the car, and nicely full of tire.

    The valence and spoiler give it some attitude, too.

    Do you know which day that photo was taken? Dad had his red '71 there and he only recalled seeing a real nice green small bumper Maverick and one other, but never spotted this one. He did not stay for Sunday though.

    More pictures of this car coming very soon. I know Kirk, the editor of the Goodguys Gazzette. I just emailed him to see if he had any pictures of the car he could forward me. He said he did take a few and would send them my way.

    He says the car was amazing. And the kicker...... it belongs to a fifteen (15) year old girl!!

    Stay tuned......

    Here is what I was able to get so far. I have been told more will be coming my way. These pictures were actually taken at the Goodguys Columbus event this past weekend. I am also posting a couple of the slammed green Maverick that most of us have seen posted before.

    Both are very clean and classy, the green one is a good case for "Less is More"
    Awesome cars! Thanks for taking the time to get those pictures!

    That green one is my computer background. I love that car! Both look great though. The stance on each of them are perfect.

    Here are a few more my friend sent me today. He says he has more coming as well. For some reason he couldn't forward them now. There are some cool touches done to this car. She is a lucky girl for sure!

    What's the rear bumper from? Early Camaro?
