    On the left side fender apron just in front of the shock tower. It is a squarish metal box with a red rubber button on it. It was on 74's and very early '75 US Mavericks only as far as I know..

    Never seen that sticker before..

    I had never seen the sticker before....until that auction.

    We need to save that picture to the gallery so when the auction disappears.....we still have it.

    My 74 did not have that sticker either .... I also owned two 74 Comets back in the 80's ... I don't recall ever seeing that sticker in either of them as well ...

    I bought a Maverick Grabber new in '74 and there was no sticker like that and there isn't one on the car I have now. It is possible that it was only manditory on cars going to perticular states or special DSO's A week after I took delivery I unpluged the sensors under both bucket seats. That was that! On the car I have now I left it alone. I always ware the seat belt anyway. Back in 1974 I never used the seat belt until it became law. This is a good anti theft feature. The car will not start if the belt is not on or at least "pulled up" but if it is not buckeled, the warning lite will glow and the busser will sound.

    Can you edit the first post so that the picture will always be there long after the ebay auction ends?

    Thanks.
