Same body as a 69.5 - 77 Maverick. Yup, it's been done.

I never really had a "build thread", but there was an introduction thread here several years ago. I have the RCM front clip and no shock towers, are you gonna try and keep your stock front end? Here's a good build thread on another board (not mine)...
