    Hey, folks! I've been lurking on this site for a while now, finding lots of useful info -- never got around to posting. I have a 1973 Maverick with a 250 (which I'm NOT replacing with a 302...), 71K miles, and very clean interior/exterior. Quite a find in Maine, where you can actually hear your car rusting in the driveway.

    I'll post some pics soon -- in the meantime, if anyone happens to have a spare set of heater/ac controls, I've already posted in the Parts Wanted section....

    OK, maybe you can't HEAR the rust, but between the winter weather, rain and the salt air, anything left outside is fair game. Fortunately the Mav is safe and dry in the garage (my truck, however...)
