Details of the restoration are as follows:

The body comes from a 1970 Maverick, 6cyl 3 on the tree manual, acquired from it's original owner, a senior gentleman in the Denver Colorado area. The car was garage kept and had minimal rust. The Maverick shares the same undercarriage with the Lincoln Versailles. A donor Versailles with less than 50,000 miles was located for the drive train. In December 2002, all trim and windows were removed from the Maverick. The undercarriage and engine compartment were painted black. The 302 V-8, C-4 automatic transmission came from the Versailles. The 9" rear end from the Versailles bolted in without modification to the Maverick springs. Detroit Locker differential with 3:75 gearing was installed by D&R Driveline Grand Rapids, MI. The Versailles rear disc brakes were installed with new rotors and calipers and an extra leaf added to the rear springs. The front suspension was modified to use the front spindles and front disc brakes. New ball joints were pressed and welded in and the larger front sway bar from the Versailles was installed.
