I own a 72 sprint which I am making a drag car out of , if anyone knows where I can get suspension parts ,in particular, I would appreciate the info.
Howdy and . Sprints are pretty rare in the Maverick world due to the fact they were only made the one year. Where are you located?
I agree about the rarity of Sprints. If your Sprint is in as nice a condition as my 74 I trade yah ... I'll keep the Sprint original and you can do want you want with my 74 ...
I'm from Ole Virginny . These parts I'm looking for are predominantly new ones that I can't seem to locate , such as subframe connectors ,headers for a 4v cleveland (AFTER I chop out the shock towers ) racing leaf springs , that sort of stuff.
What part of VA? There's not much in the way of prefab stuff for these cars. Most make their own or modify mustang stuff.
woooooooo hoooooooooo yet another racer! Frame connectors as mentioned, make yourself or have some made. www.autokrafters.com off the headers you are talking about....not sure how they fit. Do a search on "cometgt1974" he has a car that is running faberglass leaf springs...very hot set-up and very good.
did a little search...check this out.... http://mmb.maverick.to/showthread.php?t=8642&highlight=cometgt1974
that was a very helpful link I 'preciate it ! I'm gonna look into shock mounting strategies and leaf springs too. I would love too put some of those maier mustang springs that move all the leafs in front on if that would not be more trouble than it's worth . Has anyone made early mustang leafs work in a mav ? whacha gotta do ?
