    Hello,
    I'm new to this forum i've owned Ford Maverick 1970 couple of years, it has now 250CID+C4 but it will change to 302CID V8 to the next summer.
    Just stopped to say hello from cold and snowy Finland!

    :Welcome: from Northeast Pennsylvania USA

    Nice car you have - I bet there aren't many Mavericks in Finland.

    One of my favorite bands of all time is Nightwish from Finland :thumbs2:

    Going by the shot of the registration decal, that car came to Finland via Puerta Rico?

    Yup. Here isn't many Mavericks in Finland.
    I think my car came somewhere around Mexico.
    I'm second owner in Finland.

    Puerta Rico is an island nation a little bit closer to us Florida guys than it is to Mexico. It is a US territory and would likely be another US state the government was still doing that kind of thing. Open travel and trade between the US and PR.

    Check it out ...

    http://www.nationsonline.org/oneworld/map/google_map_puerto_rico.htm

    The car probably went US to PR to Finland ... if it could talk, it probably would have some pretty good stories.

    If you post the VIN number, we could give you the build history on the car ... telll you what factory it was originally made at.
