back end, ugly???

i know im probably gona get yelled at for this topic but is their any way i can make the backend of my 74 maverick look cooler than the ugly backing???:16suspect

 

small bumper swap? i thought the rear of my 76 was hedious untill i did that. i could have lived with the front but the rear of 74-77 mavericks is hedious IMO

 

small bumper and graber spoiler

 

that, and some 12'' wide rims cant hurt either

 

And add a couple of strips!

 

This is bad azzz! What size are they? Did I miss a thread on this car?

 

imagine that..... you missing something, lol


...BFD...

 

i ended up buying that less then perfect 69.5 off ebay with the bad cowls. it had everything else i wanted and the 2nd chance offer was hard to pass up. the addition of that car is what motivated me to loose the other blue one thats currently on ebay

the rims are 15x12 and fit the stock rear end perfect. my friend bought them for his 68 dart and half the rim was out of the fender. he let them go for $50

 

What back spacing did you use

 

i'll have to measure them. theyre just swap meet hand me downs that we decided to expierment with

 

Very nice, looks really mean with a great stance.

 

a problem that i ran into was that my springs and rear shocks are dead and with the large tires theres a little bit of a clearence issue over the bumps

 

yeah....I would say they definitely DON'T fit. You will eventually hit a huge bump and shatter the quarter panel. Tires should not stick out past the quarter panel...at least not in this decade.

 

That's not a little bit. I once had some that stuck out and I had alot more height than what you have. I was racing and at the end of the run there was a bump in the road that sent the tires up and the sidewall peeled off down to the threads.
I like that look on the rear but skinnies up front don't do it for me.
Rip the cowls out of the one on ebay and part it out
Back on topic.
Justin, put Comet lights on it
