I talked to Tracy-(passinwind) in Denton Tx there is a large junkyard that has up to 20 mavericks along with a lot of other classic cars. The web site is www.ctcautoranch.com There are several catagories to choose from. It maybe worth a look he does ship also.
The owner said that he had some parts cars 2&4door. No grilles Or Grabber Hoods. Phone # 1-800-482-6199. I dont't know if hes high priced.
That garage is like heaven for me. "1972 Ford Factory Grabber, Power-steering, factory air, 302, bench-seat car, good body, needs restoration, the rarest maverick, the rarest year only $1,995.00" ...I didn't know the 72 was the rarest year... I would think that 71 would be more desirable cuz of the compression of the v8 and the bumpers and stuff...? Is there something that I'm missing?
i have bought from them before. very good people to work with. the part they sent me was defective and he stepped right up and sent a nos replacement.
Actually....1975 is the rarest year of Maverick. That doesn't necessarily translate to "most desireable"
I have bought many things from that yard over the years for other cars I own. First rate operation! Dan
A lot of people are under the "assumption" that the 1972 model was the only model year with the "grabber" hood.... I think we know that there were 1971's with that hood as well. Before the internet age I was one of those peeps. For years I always thought that 72 Grabbers were the only cars with the dual fake scoops on the hood....
