Blue My Mind, 1972 Ford Maverick

[Boss 5.0]

Then in early November I got this picture sent to me



It may seem insignificant to you, but to me it was the most amazing picture I had ever seen. For 8 long years I had been looking for this car, you see back in 1986 my dad and I bought and built it as our first project. All the others before that were his, I was just his sidekick. I drove this car to my senior high school prom, seen here in 1987.


We sold the car in the early 90's, and I regretted it right away. But, marriage, work, kids and other hot rods all took precedent for a while. Then I decided it was time, but a copy wouldn't due, I wanted that very car if I could find it. I posted all over the web with ics and details of it hoping....

Then one day in November I get a call from a guy that had just bought it and was looking for history on it when he found my searches. Long story short, he sold me the car.

coming off the truck after making its way home.....



and after a good bath.
