Mine currently has an engine in it, but I will run (or walk) out & see if it is picture friendly. Same with my Maverick. It has half an engine, but I will look. Another major difference is shock tower location and Mustang has rack & pinion. Maverick does not. thanks for the pics c4!! Mavericks look a lot weaker compared to a mustang 2. Looks like a stang has a bolt in cross member that the a arm bolts to versus the maverick having a arms that bolt to the unibody.

No problem. That would APPEAR to be the case, but I think you will be pleasant surprised by the nose, especially if you are allowed a lot of body seam welding. They have been a popular choice around here for a long time. The lack of a cross member throws some folks off. Most build their own to match their engine. The frame rails themselves are a bit beefier than those on a Mustang or Pinto.

Looking good. I think the back window bar will help a lot.
Other Maverick threads have not taken off like this one. Thinking of putting it in the locator.

I'm looking at picking up a 1970 ford maverick 2 Dr with a 250 online 6 to run in a compact class 105 and under 4 or 6 cyl but it's a stock class most guys around here run cavaliers and a few Volvo wagons how good would a maverick do in a stock class against those cars and what are any tips if it's worth it.
