So my plan is working, trying to drive people nuts with this car!!! Lol......


Trunk is now done! Here is the closeout panel that hides the battery. We added some houndstooth here as well, and it has the same staggered design as what is on the doors. Only thing left to do is bolt in the front bucket seats and she is all done. I am picking the car up Friday morning! Can't wait to get it outside and be able to get some pictures in better lighting.

I picked up the car from the interior shop today. I am so happy with the final outcome, it looks exactly as I had envisioned. I love how much the back seat matches the front.


Pictured aren't great as the sun was going down and it was in the shade.

Glenn your guy did a great job.

Now you seriously need to find yourself a Sema Sponsor so we all can see it next year.

I just read through your maverick build. WOW, that car is amazing.You have some bad-ass skills. I remember these cars from back when I was growing up, a few friends had them. For sure, you, your skills and your car belong at sema.
The only thing I see empty is the passenger side dash is bare, do you have any plans for that? maybe you reserved that space for all the awards???:king:

I have made a list of vendors used. I will post them up and would be curious to see which ones you might think would be worth approaching. Thanks for all the continued love of the project!!

Thanks for reading it all. Its been a long road, but very fulfilling. The early Mavericks never had a glove box, so that smooth out area is factory like that. As of right now I have no plans of adding anything to the area.

Since you suggested I figure out the list of companies used, I started putting it all down and it isn't as big as most of you use.

There are likely a few more I am missing, but this is the majority of it off the top of my head. Not really a lot there to choose from to get me to SEMA in my eyes.

But, here goes:


Fesler, driving lights
Ring Brothers, door handles
E-Stopp, electric E brake
BFG, tires
Advanced Plating, chrome work
Engineered Components Inc, disc brakes
Dynacorn, rear tail pan and tail lights
Maverickman Carbon Fiber Products, hood and trunk
Lokar, shifter, throttle cables, trans cables
Billet Specialties, rims, valve covers, air cleaner
Gotta Show Products, trans, power steering and heater lines
Champion, radiator
Ford Motorsport, headers, driveshaft
Edelbrock, intake, carb
Spoilers by Randy, front spoiler
March Performance, Serpentine set up
Compu-Tronix, distributor-less ignition
Hagen Hot Rod, flush side lights
Aeromotive, fuel pressure regulator
Juliano's Hot Rods, Steering wheel
New Vintage, Gauges and gear indicator panel
PPG, paint
3M, sand paper and seam sealers
Evercoat, body fillers
Vision Concepts, outside door mirrors
TMI, replacement seat foams
Ididit, steering column
Rod & Custom Motorsports, Front suspension

These are the one's that i would consider. Most likely one of them would Sponsor and outside spot and may even give you some money to get it there.

With how well this car is built, you should have no issue getting it into a booth at SEMA. We hope everything works out so we can see it up close in person next year!
