Ever see a Maverick Pickup?How about tubbed?

I've waited all day for more pic's! Thanks!!! (now I can sleep till morning)

 

This is like a mini series - just waiting for the next episode.

 

Yes the 69 1/2's were titled as 70's.
The easiest way to spot a 69 1/2 is the ignition switch. 69 1/2 is mounted in a bezel at the base of the dash. 1970 was in the column.

 

I can tell by the way the sub frames are going in, this isn't your first rodeo!

Keep up the good work and please keep us posted with the progress.


Please have your "customer" sign on and give us some history.

 

How wild that that thing is still around. I also figured it went to the crusher years ago.
Cool.

 

How cool would it be if that thing received a grabber hood, Grabber Blue paint scheme a Better back window treatment and made to look as if it came from the factory that way. !

 

I may upset some folks, but I think tubbing it will improve it....Another thing that never looked just right to me is the rear top post... too thin....if it had a sail panel like an early El Camino it would flow better with the body lines. There is a Pinto running around Birmingham that was a wagon and now is a mini Ranchero like that, and it too has the thin rear roof pilar, throws off the other body lines to me. Oh, and I think a Grabber hood would fit in good, but I'd paint it with one of the dayglo colors available now, like a bright lime or a plum , something to make it stand out even more!

 

First of all I love the paint scheme. I love the whole idea and it is awesome just like it was.

Since he's tubbing it and modifying it, can I have the sidepipes? I am having a Hell of a time finding those style pipes.

 

haha you and your side pipes lol

 

I'm not surprised that the original pictures were taken in a trailer court. Looked like something "Earl" would drive.

 

I'm going to go on a hunger strike until the owner agrees to keep the original paint scheme.

If he refuses, and I starve to death, he'll be sorry then! :16suspect

That thing is a legend and an icon of the Maverick history.

 

Uhhhhh...Rick....If something happens to you, can I have your post count? That'll put me in second behind Mavaholic.

 

I'll join in, it's Beer for me from now on!! Till we get some results!!

 

Sorry Ray, I found this statement in your contract, "All post are the opinion of the poster and not necessarily the opinions of the board, and are not transferable." Actually Rick, I got 2 dollars in nonsequential, unmarked bills that I'll send ya if you give them to me. Nobody will have to know

 

Sounds to me like you've got dibs, big spender!
