    To me that is actually not that bad, little bondo, primer, sanding. you guys are to use to seeing cars without rust but up here thats not bad at all. Id restore it. My comet was in worst condition, that same summer i got it running and inspectable until i got the idea to go with the 302 swap.
    Over all, unless he paid over 400, its a deal.

    Sorry but I disagree i mean its got a spoiler that will bring $150 and up. Sport mirrors that will bring $50 and up. I will pull the 250 and put it in a different maverick. The grabber Hood could be restored no other rust or dents except the front lip which could be cut out and restored the hood could probably bring $100. And then the car will bring $75 for scrap or up. Scrap is $6.50 here now.

    And just so everybody knows i paid $125 and we loaded it up. It wont stay here for long.
