Default Power Tour Plan B

well, it's looking very doubtful to have the Chevelle ready for PT; kinda got hung up on the body prep. So I bought a "plan B" car. Please do not laugh if you see me cruising down the road in it!











It's a 70 Maverick with 8200 original miles. Very clean car, auto trans, and the amazing 200 cid 6 with 105 HP! No ps, no pb (4 wheel manual drums), and no a/c. Perfect for the Tour!

I figure I'll hook a tow strap to Camaro X or the Red Witch so they don't ditch me every day.

That's a clean car, even if it is a Maverick...LOL
The interior looks like new. I will bet that straight 6 cannot be killed. Heck you could probably run it on diesel or kerosene and still keep chugging.
Was that from an estate sale ??

The only thing I'd laugh at is the sight of you getting out of the car. "Hey mommy, how did the giant get in that matchbox car?"

I kinda like the car.....
