    Hey guys, I'm new to the forum, I've got a 1970 maverick that I've been slowly working on since I got it when I was 13 and am now 19. Thank you for having a great forum like this! :thumbs2:

    Yeah, I have front disc brakes from a 76 4 door I bought for $300 and ended up parting out the rest of the car and made a few bucks. :thumbs2: and the rear end is an 8 inch.

    WOW, clatskanie? Really? I grew up there for a very short time. Do you know any of the Truedson's (I think that how you spell it), Gary Truedson used to own the Napa store there, I was friends with his son Kevin but Kevin would be the same age as me, I hate to say but I'm 48. Anyways, there is a guy on here from Tillamook, named Mike goes by yellow75, Very good guy if you get a chance to hook up with him. It is cool to see people from places you know or knew. Welcome!

    Wow, what a small world! Thats awesome though. None of those names sound familiar to me though. I dont know if you were around this town when John Flagg took over the Napa store, and had a guy name Lowell Gish working for him?
