: Hi
: I have a baby blue maverick 1973, 6 cylinder 250, air-conditioning. I want to restore and rebuild the engine. Any suggestions????????

: I'm am about to:
: *paint the outside
: *get new seats, headliner, carpet
: *stereo system


The first thing I plan to do is test the cylinders, change carburater, change radiator, change spark plugs, get new tires,the engine does not appear to be in bad shape at all. I was told that maybe if I change all the fluid and filters it will run, but I not now. It looks terrible but I am going to do the engine first, the brakes, and all that stuff. I am not sure if I should do the interior or the exterior next though. I wanted it to be running well somewhere in June.
