Every time I look at that car I imagine it's like driving a roller skate with a rocket engine attached.  I heard that the grabbers with the 302 were squirmy because of the shorter wheel base.  I imagine that every time you mash the loud pedal it becomes a battle to keep the butt end behind you.  Some day I plan on getting a Maverick.  I ended up buying my 67 mustang first.  I can only hope mine will be half as nice.
My car is a gravity hybrid.  The gasoline engine gets me up the hills, and gravity gets me down.

I saw a Maverick in a magazine that made me think about you. I like the new wheels, they look good on it.
