This first-year 1970 Ford Maverick benefits from having features only found on early models that include a form-hugging rear bumper and slender chrome front bumper. Finished attractively in Pepper Gray with black stripes, blacked out grill and tail panel as well as tinted windows, this seldom-seen early Maverick looks cool from any angle. A set of black-spoked 17-inch American Racing wheels wrapped with Sumitomo HTR ll performance tires staggered 245/45ZR17 front and 275/40ZR17 rear complete the aggressive look.
The clean, all new custom black interior features bucket seats, a custom Grant GT steering wheel, column-mounted Auto Gage tachometer and a Clarion stereo with Bluetooth. A custom console with cup holders and Auto Gage gauges with temperature, oil pressure and volt meter surrounds a Hurst shifter.
Under the hood is a 302 V8 matted to a 5-speed manual transmission. The engine features an Edelbrock aluminum intake manifold, Proform 4-barrel carburetor, aluminum radiator with electric fan, chrome strut braces, chrome Ford Racing valve covers and long-tube headers feeding back to dual exhaust. A set of front disc brake make sure there is plenty of stopping power, while traction bars keep the rear end steady during acceleration.
