    I am going to get 2 more Mavericks. One i a 1970 2dr 170 6cyl 3 speed on the tree. It was a project that was quit on. The body is in real good shape. There has already been a lot of work done to it. The only bad thing about this one is it is a basket case. The grill bumpers and lights and a lot of the interior have beed taken out but are still present. The 1971 2 dr has a bad 200 and no tranny was a C4. The rearend is out of it. It to has a ood body but the guy was working on it and let it roll into an oak tree. This tore up the front bumper, grill and the front spoiler. I am going to get these next week hopefully. All for the price of $600:thumbs2:

    I don't think I am going to be able to get these for a while. Some things came up and we are having to do work at my house so we can move the cars from my uncles to my house. I will probaly get them later this summer."dad want let me bring them home til this is done". I ain't really worried about hem getting sold because they have been in the same place for 5 years.

    I would give the guy a deposite to hold the cars and leave your phone number with him. Tell him to give you a call first if anyone else becomes intrested in them.

    I agree with Jamie, that's the best way to go.

    I think I am just going to leave these were they are because the 1970 is a total basketcase. After some thinking I don't think there worth the $600.

    Chances are they will still be there when your ready. Its not like there are people knocking on doors every day looking for Maverick stuff.

    I've got 15 cars (not all Mavericks though). At one time I had
    38 (!!). Yes really! When I get thru stripping the last part's
    cars I'll end up with twelve. Unless of course I succumb to the
    temptation to buy an 80's Lincoln and Camaro that I have been
    wanting lately for the collection. When I had the 38 cars, 15
    were Maverick/Comet's. When I'm thru, I'll have five Mavericks
    among the twelve (or maybe 14?) cars of the collection.
