Happy New year everyone. I need to clear some crap out of my garage so I can get the new shoulder belt anchors welded in. That's the only think holding me back installing the headliner, which is preventing me from locating and getting a new windshield installed. That and actually locating a new windshield. :slap:

Happy New Year everyone, I hope this year will be a good one and the economy picks up.
Yes it is time to clean out the garage, too many parts that i'm not going to use, that are just
stacked up for the last 5 years, lets face it hoarding parts for what? Time to clean house and get rid of it. I think i will make a list.....

By the way over the Winter i plan on turning my Comet into a Dyno Dan clone............... no really. A sorta Dyno Comrick clone.

Like this:

But with Comet taillights............. o.k............ i'm just kidding. Hey a man can dream can't he?

By the way Dyno Dan's Maverick is for sale if anyone is interested.:thumbsup:

I imagine it's not to cheap.

I pulled the battery tender off the Maverick the other day and tried to start it up. The battery was dead. :?: I think it was just too late to keep this one from dying. It's not even four years old yet, but it sits most of the time.

Finally was able to celebrate the new year firing up the Maverick and driving it around the block! I have had the regular battery charger on it since about January. :p Made the garage real stinky too. :D. I'm sure I'll hear about that when Marion gets home (I think I just heard the garage door.. ) I was able to crank it enough yesterday to get fuel to the carb, and today managed to get it to fire up.
