    Hello everyone My name is Kevin and I am new to the forum.
    I have a 1972 Maverick that was given to my parents as a wedding gift from my grandparents in 1972. It has been stored most of its life and the last time it was plated was 1984. My dad and I have decided it was time to bring it back to life.

    The short term plan is to just make it drivable. Then when the time is right complete restoration back to its 1970's street racing glory, maybe with a few slight upgrades.
