    Me and Frank went to a different junkyard today. Only one Maverick this time. I got the front bumper, brackets, valance, parking lights, filler panel and the 69 Mach I hood scoop.

    did you guys checked if that Pinto still had the oil pan? because Jamie had been looking for one a few months ago for his 2.3L Maverick.

    I bought one off a guy on a Pinto forum last month. :yup:

    I would be interested in the alternator bracket though.

    Good score! I'd love to have that Pinto. Looks like a good body. I've got an extra 302 that would make a hell of a sleeper in there!

    The sport mirrors weren't Maverick mirrors.
