AMT Right On Maverick

[Louie]

Hey Gang!!! I started building my Right On Maverick. This is one of the rarest Maverick kits out there. It is a Johan kit re-boxed by AMT. These are pretty hard to find in any condition. This one was started and painted poorly. There is no way a kid from 1973 would have been able to paint this like the box. I had a lot of work in masking it, and I have modern materials!! And it was tough. The decals were present, so I scanned them and made a new set. I had just unmasked the body after the black paint coat when Dale came by to drop off the hood for the F-350 Truck I just got. Thanks again Dale!!! I applied the new decals and cleared the car. I will post more photos tommorow. Have fun -Louie

Hey Gang!! Started on the Maverick again. Sorry I wasn't able to make the meeting this month. We were counting inventory at work and I was beat when I got off. Well I got the engine basicly put together. I think this is the best looking 427 SOHC engine in kit form. I'm going to install it in the car real soon. The headers are real tricky to put on, the headers have to be put on the chassis loose and then the engine put in, oh what fun!!! ;D -Louie

It's getting closer!!! I put the headers and engine on the Chassis today. The engine is wired and ready to race!!! Pretty much ready for final assembly. Probably be done tonight. -Louie
