Have a maverick at last

ballo1000 · 21-09-2014, 11:54

It's taken a few weeks but I finally have a Maverick, well will do when I pick it up in the week. One popped up yesterday on fleabay for a steal so couldn't resist. So now to get it home and leave it a couple of weeks for the wife to get used to it before starting on the mods

. First job is all the fluids in the gearbox and diff as it doesn't have much history. Then to start on the dial battery, still undecided if to go for a fixed or removable power pack type option. Then wheels, lights etc.

Nothing like a shopping list before you have even picked it up...

Hope it is a good one.

I would suggest doing your fluids before using it or anything else also get under and have a look, a member from NI bought one recently with UK MOT and it was rotten

Thanks, I will be giving it a good going over and make sure I check the underside before I hand over the cash.

Cool that's the important bit, if it's all hammerited give it a good hard poke to check it's not all rusty too
