Look up the Brazilian ones, they were building pro touring versions 30 years ago. Down there the Maverick is the most popular vintage car and they spend big bucks on it.
I've always liked the early Mavericks. Decades ago, one of my co-workers had a stock Maverick Grabber 302 2barrel that would quickly enough top 100 mph - I can't imagine 200 mph. One of my cousins went wild on a 302 Maverick with whatever speed parts he could buy at Super Shops. I had an acquaintance with the rarer Comet GT (Mercury version of the Grabber).
To find out about the car I googled the company on the guys shirt and the car " Greening Auto Company Maverick" and it came up. This is the link: www.greeningautocompany.com/jimmy-shaws-maverick
They put a chevy motor in it and have learned from all the others that love the car at first but hate it after they learn they did that thats why they dont get a thumbs up from me
@@gerryrogue7710 In this link, it says it has a "1,200-horsepower twin-turbo 427c.i. Ford V8, based on a Windsor block and carefully assembled by Bennett Racing Engines." www.fuelcurve.com/built-for-speed-twin-turbo-ford-maverick/ It sure looks like a Windsor, no front mount distributor, but that is common in builds of that caliber.
@@mattfarahsmillionmilelexus Thanks. I don't know why they never mentioned any of the car's specs in this video OR in the first link to the builder's shop above!
my dad has had a comet gt in the back of the shop for as long as i can remember. every now and agen he will talk about it and i just cant help but get exsited one of the gratest cars ever made!
That thing is fuckin’ badass. Super build, awesome car! Congrats to the builders and owner. Not many people would sack-up that kind of money on a Maverick. You’ve done its namesake proud! A true Maverick. Nice!!
My first car was a 75 Mercury Comet, the Mercury clone of the Maverick, but with 4 doors. It was pretty sad looking, but the motor had been redone so it was pretty speedy - although not at all like this. Good memories.
My cousin had saved up and bought a Maverick.Before he could drive he had it painted and the whole engine done with Edelbrock parts.I loved that car.This one is really nice because it has a modern look that most guys do not have the creativity to build.
Had a maverick it was my mom's Christmas present in 1970. It started rusting the day my dad brought it home. Cool looking car, I ended up driving it I high school. I couldn't put anything in the trunk because it would fall out through the holes. It amazes me that any of them survived . Lol. It beat walking though
This is incredible. Last time I saw a Maverick it was just the name badge on top of a massive pile of rust, some rubber and a gelatinous oily heap for a engine.
the Maverick in America was always joked about I don't know why it's as good looking as Mustang smaller and lighter and most parts interchange , but in Brazil they always customized Mavericks and they still do , it was built there and the mustang wasn't , i have seen lots down there
I love the Mavericks oh what I like to see come back a little faster and more stable and not ever caused the crash and burn again is a Ford Pinto Fastback Pony or a Ford Mercury bobcat pinto hatchback . ONLY with a little more horsepower under the hood like a v6 twin cam EFI vortex engine or a Mitsubishi 4 cylinder twin overhead cam electronic fuel injection engine with a supercharger.
That's by far, the coolest, baddest looking Maverick I've ever seen, AND it'll do 200!!!!!!
Has to be the best looking Maverick I have ever seen. Total badass

I preferred The Morpheus/Prometheus over this one
That thing looks good
It's UGLY.
Far more that "looks good" bud.
@@johnjerizlopezignacio3891 So...lots of idiots.
@@Thirdgen83 no, just you.
@@nouseforaname.1364 True
And now everyone gets to try it out in GT7. Sweet.
I did it a few minutes ago and came looking for it here 😂😂😂
Beautiful! My first car was red ‘70
Maverick I bought used in ‘78. Man, I loved that car! Drove it until a drunk rammed into me and totalled my baby.
Love this Maverick
I always love the underdogs in life and this maverick is a shining example of an underdog done good!

You can clearly tell by the valve cover bolt pattern it is a Ford engine.
Really awesome, José from Brazil!!

God damn that maverick looks insane! Good work guys!
Always loved this body style
what a beauty!
UGLY
@@Thirdgen83 yes you are.

That is one of the most beautiful builds I’ve ever seen.
I would take that Maverick over any mustang any day. That is a supreme being in the car world. Absolutely gorgeous and amazing. I love it!
My grandpa had one my entire childhood. Never knew one could be that badass.
Most underappreciated Muscle Car ever, period
Love those little cars.
Sickest Maverick you will ever see! It can’t get nicer than that.
And now this car is in Gran Turismo 7 😀
This thing is extremely beautiful 🥺
My god it is Beautiful ...
absolutly beautiful
This is one of the coolest cars I've ever seen
What a nice car they make it so nice!!
That's the ugliest Maverick I've ever seen.
@FuckFace Yeah, a friend of mine has one that's Way nicer than that hideous thing.
@@Thirdgen83 wow you have friends?!?!?!
@@Thirdgen83I think you meant boyfriend.

My first was a 75 Maverick. Also with a Built 302.
I ended up swapping the bumpers to the small kind because the big bumpers made it look horrible.
My cousin had saved up and bought a Maverick.Before he could drive he had it painted and the whole engine done with Edelbrock parts.I loved that car.This one is really nice because it has a modern look that most guys do not have the creativity to build.
I WONT ONE !!! Wow, this guy (or somebody else) need to make a mold of this car and sale it.
Man! That's probably the best looking maverick on the planet!👌🥰👉❤
When you have that much money things are almost limitless
Incredible I’m blown away a maverick 😎👍
That car looks fast even when it's still❤🤤
Makes me think of the Ring Bros. Javelin... on par, in my book
SIK Ride! Beautiful all around! Great job!🤙🏼💯
I call those the Mavstangs. Buddy had one that did 11s which was good with no expensive mods.
Looking into buying a 75 project right now. This sold me
maverick,one of the nicest body styles
Nice! Was really hoping for a section on the suspension build
Me too. I thought the Maverick was a unibody, would be interested in what they did for the chassis.
Mavericks have always had very nice basic styling/proportions
Like your mom =D

Que escândalo de beleza!
Wow I want a maverick now
Meu Deus!!!!!!!
Esse maverick é lindo de mais
Um dos mais lindos que já vi, parabéns ao proprietário
Contagem MG Brasil ✌👍👍👍👍👍
That thing looks hecka awesome.
Parabéns, bela máquina!
This thing is amazing.
LOVE LOVE LOVE MY FORDS!!!
What kind of car channel is this? Not a lick of info about whats under the hood....Well at least the paint was shiny I guess.
Yep crap channel
A British one
Yeah sadly.
Twin Turbo 427, Windsor based.
Looked like a coyote
Awesome built
Very nice modified. 1 of the best
Holey Shimoley that thing looks hot!
Ford 💪 💯.. beautiful, the carbon fiber along the bottom and molded fender flares.
Love that car it looks so sick!!
Such an under rated car ... How could you not want something with this much potential ...
rapaz esse maverick é tão foda q quando vi pela primeira vz pensei q o carro era digital , q progeto viu kra parabens
This is incredible. Last time I saw a Maverick it was just the name badge on top of a massive pile of rust, some rubber and a gelatinous oily heap for a engine.
Great looking Maverick 👍🏽
Maverick *Marvellous* ✌🏻
So beautiful.
Dude sick !!
How do you even go over a speedbump
I thought about trying a similar rebuild with a Chevy Vega.
that is one sweet land hammer you built there
Liked to have seen/heard more about the engine and drivetrain.
Sooooo Amazing my friends . Before I clicked on it i actually said Ring Brothers
Beautiful
My first car was a dark green '72 Maverick coupe 302 V8 & C4 auto
Such a tasty build
It’s only Monday!!!!!!tomorrow doesn’t come until it’s to late...
Traffic, Traffic, Lookin For My Chapstick... Feeling Kind Of Car Sick, Theres A Ford Maverick
Maybe I missed it but what engine was in it? I want a Voodoo Maverick. That would be a badass sounding classic.
I didn't know there is another muscle car from ford exept the mustang ! and this version is cool much pretty sick! Dude 😲😃🤪
I wish a scale car model company like AMT or Revell would make a model of the Maverick.
Wow 😲
My dreamcar a dodge housecat!!!
Holy moly 🤯🔥🔥🔥
I wish i could afford you to build me one. I would buy it!!!! Great Work!!🔥🥇☝🏾💪🏾
GOOD JOB NICE MAV
This has a serious Bosozuku feel to it. Alot more tame though.
Puts, isso sim e um maverick de verdade.👍👏
Back in the day my paw paw said ford maverick with 302 was best cat ever.
the Maverick in America was always joked about I don't know why it's as good looking as Mustang smaller and lighter and most parts interchange , but in Brazil they always customized Mavericks and they still do , it was built there and the mustang wasn't , i have seen lots down there
I’m a mustang guy, however, I agree.. the Maverick is a very underrated car. Maybe Ford didn’t promote it enough due to the Mustang.
Too tuff, one bad ride.
My mom had a Maverick in the 80s. One of her boyfriends wrecked it Joy driving drunk. It was supposed to be mine when I turn 16.
Looks dope 👍
Yeah, looks like a dope built it.
@@Thirdgen83 and it looks like a dope is replying
pretty car!
What’s under the hood, engine wise??
I pray it’s not a LS under the hood.
It's a 351 strokes to a 427 ford engine.👍
Not crazy about the rear flare being lower than the front. Front looks good though.
Its ugly. My 70 mav with stock body looks better.
@@CharlieBrown-pb9xn
No it ain't
@@ihavewaited90daystochangem51 Mine can pull both front tires off the ground on its 10.5 slicks. Bet it cant.
@@CharlieBrown-pb9xn
Keep talking because i know for a fact you don't have anything to back up your words.
The most awesome Mav in the World, followed by the Kang's Underdog
Greening says, "When was the last time you seen a Maverick done?"
I say, "Uhh?... SEMA 2016, Sung Kang's "Project Underdog..?"
202.7 malnower?, That's fast
So it is real gran turismo has come to life
Awesome
Any chance selling your design to Ford? Awesome car BTW.

How can I get that front bottom lip
where may I have the rear spoiler?
