I have a 72 Ford Maverick I have been building. So far the only thing I have farmed out is the transmission build. Beside that, I will have someone else do the upholstery too. Everything else is by me in my garage. Paint will be in a booth, but also by me.

I started with a low mileage car that had been stored inside by a friend for 19 years. Here is what I got in September 2009.....

After making a plan I had this rendering done to visualize my ideas....

And as it sits now ready for final block sanding and paint.

finally got some real brakes on my garage build, z06 rotors and base model front calipers on all fours, 14" front, 13.5" in the rear, and i even made the vette parking brake work. bought all the parking brake parts off gmpartsdirect.com. My drop spindles had crappy g-body brakes, i found a company called flynbye performance that made hubs that allow a vette rotor, and i drilled the spindles for the caliper brackets and cut a spacer for proper fitment. cant wait to stand on them and see how much better they are over 10.5" discs and drums!
