According to the NY registration the '66 Corvette roadster that I had weighed 3005 pounds

COOL ! I LIKE IT!

As a comparison, I had a '66 Corvette 327/350 hp, 3005 pounds, 3:55 posi / 4-speed that did the 1/4 in 14.14 sec / 101 mph with street rubber. Went through the traps not quite at red line in third gear. Those times in a 7800 pound Maverick are impressive. No doubt due to better AWD traction...

Good to know. Thanks for posting.

I downloaded the manual from Ford. Be advised it is 570 pages, however pages 463 thru 517 you won't need.

Thanks for the input guys, I appreciate it. Will probably install the LOBO logo next week - (if we get some cooler weather). Will post pictures.

Yea, I was leaning that way. I remember cars like the GTO, Grand Sport, 442, had the badge on the passenger side. Thanks. Lets see how many votes I get.

I finally got around to look at the "LOBO logo" again. I wanted to try different positions for the logo. I also trimmed the clear plastic so it wouldn't detract from the visual. Just about ready to stick 'em on.. So, lower driver's side OR lower passenger's side - what do you think? Would...

THAT is pretty cool. I did not expect the fan blades on the backside of the wheel. Like my, I think most people thought it was just the "look" of the wheel. Turns out there is a real reason for it. Thank you for your effort and posting. Also thanks to the person that posted the links of...

I've heard the LOBO wheels referred to a "dinner plate"

Anything for our furry friends and their owners.

Not sure about the weight but on the GOODWIN Racing site they replaced the LOBO wheels with another brand that they sell and cut 10 pounds lighter. That's 10 pounds off each corner. Ten pounds less unsprung weight will improve handling and overall ride as well. I'd be interested to know...

HUH ! When I replaced the incandescent bulbs on my '64 Buick....I had to replace all four AND install a LED compatible flasher. LEDs draw less current. Good to know. So the Mav has incandescent light bulbs?? How archaic !

Hey Jeff, We use a folding step for our former dog Cassie (RIP). After Cassie passed we now have a smaller dog...but that's another story. I think we got the steps at Camping World. They colapse and fold almost flat. I glued outdoor carpeting to the steps so the dog wouldn't slip. Height of...

I'm only on my third tank full of 87 and have almost 1000 miles on my LOBO. Average on this tank full is 28.4 mpg. Most of my driving is a mix of suburban and country. When country driving I almost never get into seventh gear. It usually shifts into 7th around 58 - 60 mph. Any sort of...

Yes, that's Thanks for posting the link. She really has provided an in depth review including information not found else where.

There was a link on MTC to a young lady that reviews cars on you tube. In the video she goes through all the differences related to the LOBO. If I remember correctly, the trans has a different part number. Second gear is removed and the unit has a different final drive ratio. I'll have to...

I like the GOOD WIN RACING rear bar. It is a solid bar not tubular like others.

The LOBO has a different trans than the standard Mav.

GOOD TO KNOW. Much appreciated, thanks for posting.
