Beautiful Paint!!! nice twist to a style that is so pretty it's hard to customize it! I like the headlight treatment, but I always thought a full length tailight assembly woulda looked kinda cool. Yours is more keepin with watcha got as opposed to doin body work. Cheap,but effective changes. Looks just different enough to be noticable!

WoW Hawk, that IS a NICE BUILD!!!! Paint came out beautiful!!! No doubt you got that one down to a Tee! You dun rite good!!!

Yeeesh! a GRAND???? I'm assumeing it's out of production,yes? Man I know theyre HIGHLY detailed, but man, A $1000.00 dollars??? I can understand your reluctance! Hope you can find one at a more liveable price! -
NICE Camaro,Hawk! I remember that same color,even the wheels,on a car that usedta run around here! Your looks GREAT! Is it the Monogram 24th kit with the MRC Cragars, or an original MPC 25th kit, with MPC wheels? Either way, it REALLY came out NICE!!!!

Jody,Cal, DON'T give up on the Bay. I bought the Ferrari P-4 330 by Union Models just this year in Feb/Mar, an I only paid about 50 bucks for it WITH p/h! It mighta been less,caz I set a limit on what I'll spend for something, an when I read here about this kit, I thought I'd look for it. I found it pretty reasonable myself, an it's a FULL detailed kit! VERY NICE! I do have yet to build it,but it DOES look real nice. Anyone out there build it yet? Is it hard? like the old IMC Ford GT/Lola/Chaparral kits? LOVED them kits, jus HATED buildin 'em!!! -
Yeeesh Capt'n, at leas if the cat do find him, YOU'LL be able ta hind HIM by alla mess he makes of that CAT!!!! You ever see a Skwirrl take outta cat? Me neither, but I'll betcha 2 ta 1 onna skwirrl! They's some BIG ol TREE RATS!!!! I'd jus set up a ol box trap with some glue fer bait.You KNOW he'll go fer that! Once ya gottim,DON'T put him back innat PINK drawer! YEEESH that color would make ANYTHING crazy!!!!!

Balsa wood shoebox, anyone?

DO IT!!! John, this'd be RIGHT up your alley! Than ya'll cun jes freak it out like ya likes ta do!!!! -
Darwin, unless someone pops it in resin, you are outta luck. Those rascals go for quite a few pennies when they're built, an UNBUILT one would REALLY set cha back! That's a shame too, caz the lil Comet Pro-Stocker seems to be alot more common. I see the Comet at reasonable prices,40 to 50 bucks unbuilt, but the Maverick goes for TWICE that much! I have one of each from from the original issues,an a second Comet I got atta toyshow about 5 years ago I paid 35/40 bucks then, an the last Maverick I saw in Nov.of last year was 120.00, so them rascals ain't cheap!!! That'sa shame too, caz I think It'd be a real good seller!

See Ern, I ain't the only one wat luvs ya!!!! Have you a GREAT DAY,Bro, an I hope you get everything you want! Again, HAPPY BIRTHDAY Homie!!!!

Jim, That's comin out KOOL! The tires FILL the rear wells PERFECTLY! The fronts match perfectly too. Funny how you can still keep ALL the parts with it together after all these years! An old high school sweetie had a brandy new 71 Maverick Grabber, 3-sp,anna 6. It was pretty quick for a 6, 279,or 300 Cubes or somethin like that.It looked nice,had the stripes an tailpanel blackout an hood. Her Dad put a Mach 1 Hoodscoop on it an it REALLY looked mean, Babysh8t Yellow color an all! Kinda like a Maverick Mach 1!
