    I just put a deposit down on it today. Should have it by Thursday.

    I've decided, the one I have is WAY to far gone. If anyone wants it, feel free to come by and check it out.

    Only pictures I have right now. The paint is a little rough, but this one actually has floors and quarter panels.

    Looks like a great start to a new beginning maybe with a little elbow muscle you can bring the paint back to life and the Cragars would off you other Maverick would help spruce it up. (y)

    The new one is 4 lug and the old one is 5 lug, so I'd need to do some swapping. And it was repainted, and not well of course, so it may be a little hard to buff out

    According to google maps, 125 miles. So a little over 2 hours. Not that bad.

    Not that much because I'm taking some parts off of it. I don't want to bs you around so, it has no floors, bad quarters, bad passenger door, so-so driver door.

    Thats why I just opted to go for the new one
