Hello, I'm building my first car into a road race/ autocross car. It's a 1973 Ford Maverick. I bought it my sophmore year in high school, that was 6-7 years back. At this point in time, the rust repair is near completion, and the car is completely stripped, and gutted. & I just recently started the cockpit, equipped with Coleman reverse mount hanging pedal assembly, Kirkey intermediate aluminum seat, collapse able steering column etc. I've installed Maier racing subframe connectors, and x-brace so far, for the chassis. Plans for a cage, custom front susp..probably adjustable double-a frame coil over, & for the rear a 3-link coil over . I'll hopefully be doing some of the work, at the shop after hours for a few weeks. Mike Maier -my boss, Is a wealth of knowledge, with loads of experience, I learn more and more about geometry, theory and straight up better fabrication skills, every single day as I apprentice Mike, on the chassis building level.. Now, I'll show you how I've been applying All of my new knowledge to my Maverick. :thumbsup:
