Well accually my dad spotted me some money, but ill pay him back in full soon. I bought a 1971 Ford Maverick.Costed $4500 of which most of the money im paying my parents back with the selling of my 1974 dodge dart.

anyways here are some pics, none of the interior yet but its in almost perfect condition.

1987 Ford HO police interceptor 302, with new rocker cams, hedman headers, dual flowmaster 3" exhaust and 2 "40 series" flowmaster mufflers, GM alternator (bigger then fords biggest one), new AOD transmission which is very nice. The engine only has 80,000 miles. Im sure theirs more on their but i dont remember it all.


has new tires, and a 16 gallon fuel cell in the trunk. Also on the interior it has a new sound system which sounds nice, new front bucket seats to. He gave me the old bucket seats which are mustang ones.


bad front view picture.

very nice,I used to have a budy with a Decomisioned Police Interceptor and we'd blow the door out most of the 'wing + exhaust = razr" crowd in a two tone black and white Blues Brothers like (they drove a Dodge Actually) car.

Good pick up with everyone and their mother into the Mustang/Camaro now days it's nice to see other cars such as the Darts,Novas and Maverics

Nah it just needs some sorts of Muscle Car like Stripes. But Iike the "Stallion" and the "Grabber" paint schemes best.

that is a nice blue. Ive always loved blue on muscle cars. I was going to paint my dart a blue but im selling it now. Its either going to be re-painted yellow, or orange or yes a blue.

Blue stripes and flames are wayyy overdone with muscle cars, get black with white stripes or something.

Bright red would rock that car so hard...with that hood I'd go with a matte black stripe that fit the size of the scoop and stopped at the end of the scoop (hard to describe-wished I had mad PS skills)

I love the pearl white + blue racing stripes down the center.  I thought that could look nice on your car.

Nice car, I dont really like the front end though.
