Going deep into the archives to find these photos. I used to have tons of automobile photos before my old laptop died. Most of the photos were centered around vintage car meetings -- for years Dad and I participated yearly, sometimes traveling to other cities to attend events. That hobby started by the age of 18, when I got the chance of a lifetime: receiving a 1975 Ford Maverick as a gift. I dreamed of this car for years and having the rarest of the models (GT) became an astronomical responsibility for a young dude. These photos were taken between 2009-2010; you can possibly tell by the quality. I still have the car today, though it's stored in my garage since 2016 due to lack of cash to repair the breaks.

Ford Maverick GT

The Ford Maverick was first produced in the United States between 1969 and 1977. My Ford is a Brazilian-made model from 1975. In Brazil, the Maverick was produced from 1973 to 1979. The GT is considered the rarest and most desired, especially the ones equipped with the famous Ford 302" V8 engine sporting 199hp. There were ~108.000 Mavericks produced in Brazil in various models. Most of them ended up in junkyards, turning the car into a valuable asset these days.
