Bob: You sir....are correct. There's no WAY that beast would fit between those towers in an unmodified state. lol
Lee: I've given thought to purchasing a promo in the past but there is a stock resin interior tub available and then a resin body from Competition Resins. I'll come up with links to both for you man.
Stuart: Thanks for joinin' in man. Still gathering parts for this bad boy. Just trying to plan everything out so I don't get stuck in the middle of the build like the last one. lol

Thanks Paul. I just got through with a Maverick that dang near ended my career in the hobby. Man that thing was a toughy. Great to see you back around again pal.

Hey Joe looks like you have a plan coming together. Do you foresee having to mod the oil pan to clearance the cross member or steering linkage?

Re: Hubert Platt's 1970 Pro Stock Maverick
That is looking very tidy indeed. I may not be able to work on my stuff at this point but I can certainly live vicariously through you Joe.
Now that we know that.... What have we learned?...
Re: Hubert Platt's 1970 Pro Stock Maverick
Looking good! Nice chassis work...
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Thanks fellas. That is actually the last Maverick chassis that I built. I'm merely showing Brent what all is involved in the engine fit process.
