    The eastwood is made by these guys. check the show listing and you can meet them and look it over like i did. they carry about 20 of them to the shows it a big car hauler.

    I purchased a bare metal one from them this past spring at the local car show. I got the off road wheels and a unwelded leaf spring attachment.
    Havent got the grabber on it yet but as soon as I get the new garage built it will be on it and sent to media blast.

    I bought mine from Accessible Systems over 5 years ago. I bought the cheapest one they had and it has worked great.

    You'll need the Mustang kit, but you may need to modify it to fit, A Maverick would mount the same was as a Mustang.
    The front mount would mount the same place as the front bumper mount, and the rear would mount where the bumper goes, may be a little different for a 74 and on car, but close.
    Heres a picture of how it mounts to the front, kinda hard to see, just look at the spot where the bumpers brackets would go.

    What a waste of a car for a rotisserie :naughty:

    J/K Dave...that engine compartment looks so damn good, I would have hated to put anything on it to clutter it up!!! :clap:

    One thing about these, when your not using them, you can rent them out. I paid $725 total for mine back in 01 and have since made back $400 renting it out.
