    I bought 6 mavs, 5 are pretty well gutted, 1 complete, 4 are small bumper cars, 3 front bumpers, and 2 rear bumpers were any good, 2 had clutch pedals in them but only 1 z bar, the 1 car that is complete has big bumpers.

    now i should have enough parts to start on my 70 mav:grpnanadance:

    you should be able to at least make one good one out of all that and a few bucks off everything you dont use.

    where are you located btw? ;)

    I am going to keep the bumpers, I might be able to build two cars. if i put t-5 in one of them i think i will go with a hydrolic clutch, so i might sell the one clutch pedal and z bar.

    I can't find ANY Mavs or Comets 2 or 4dr to buy for any price. I know where 5 Mavs are but the guy is a d*ck and runs you off if you stop to ask. There is a Mav behind a trailer up the road but they are never home.

    I think I'm the only person within a 30 mile radius around me that has a Maverick

    Thats a lot of people within a 30 mile ring with bad taste! Everybody knows this was the coolest car from the 70s. Only squares drove something else.
    There are other Mavs and Comets here but none for sale or anything in a junkyard.

    I only know of 7 maverick/comet owners in DE, I would be #8 and theres a compleatly stripped 2dr shell a a local yard. the guy wants $400 for it with rusty floors and 1/4's

    At this point all i could really use off another mav/comet for mine would be a pasangerside fender and drivers side door and its not like i could ever have either of those shipped for a decent price.
