    After watching these cars for around 4 yrs or so, i finally went ahead and purchased them. two of them will make good parts cars for sure, but the destiny of the third car is yet to be determined. i spoke about these cars before, but for those who dont remember, here's what i just bought:

    -1972 Ford Maverick 4door, 200/C4, burgandy exterior, black interior, 2.79:1 gears, runs and drives, parts car -no title-

    -1973 Ford Maverick LDO 4door, 302/C4, A/C, P/S, gold w/ white top, tan interior (bucket seat of course), package tray, 3.00:1 gears, runs and drives, parts car -clean title-

    -1974 Ford Maverick 2door, 250/3speed manual, column shift, bench seat, brown exterior, tan interior, manual steering, 3.00:1 gears, -clear title- *this is the one im not sure what to do with yet. has some exterior rust but seems to be good underneath so we'll see*

    due to the crappy weather, i havent gotten these cars home yet and prolly wont be able to untill Sunday or so. but when i do, ill be sure and post some pictures...... and a few adds in the for sale section as well :D:D:D :dance:

    interesting combo on the 250 I6 and the 3 on the tree... I thought most of the column shift 6 cyl. were 200's. The little extra HP and the 3 speed manual should be a fun combo to drive
