Back in 77-78 I used to have a 71 grabber with a 250 in it that I used to take to the dragstrip every weekend as a standby... Almost every week one of our Mopars or someone we knew would break a car and the Maverick would run in Bracket 4 on a free ticket.(high 17s but deadly consistant)... That damn thing won more money with more different drivers than my good cars did..351C would be the way to go in that baby. you don't have to chop it up too much to make it fit..:D

[72Chero]

Klaus actually wants to build a stroker windsor to stuff in it.... it will be a fun car.... finally got the title work straightened out on it... so its legally ours... now the fun begins :D :D

[Daffy]

Anything new on this project??

[tinman]

yeah, anything new? whachyooo doin?

[72Chero]

oops.... sorry guys forgot to post.... Klaus decided he didn't want it anymore and took it to the crusher after pulling some parts... we got 450 for the car and another 150 off the parts.... so little ricky is gone now... :( oh well

[PaPa Mike]

Sorry to hear about it going to the crusher, I remember some pretty mean Mavericks in "the day".
Would'a been kinda nice to see haow it turned out..
