    75 Maverick
    I am new to the forum and to Mavericks.. I just purchased a 75 2door Maverick. I do not know at this time what style it is. It has a factory 302 and manual front disk brakes. I don't think I am that lucky to have got a Grabber. I only had a quick look at it and all the extra parts he had for it. The price was right He had extra new windows all around and all the new lights even though the ones on the car where in great condition. Plus many other new parts. He only wanted $500.00. The car will be delivered in a couple of weeks and I will be posting pics and will get down to asking some questions as i rebuild it. Its in fair condition Runs and the interior was just redone.
    For now I will be just reading as much as I can so I don't have to bother you all with questions that have been asked before.


    Thanks In advance Al
