    I knew about the longer style Maverick deluxe chrome arm rest bases but didn't know that there were chrome bases that were a direct replacement for an early 2 door Maverick standard base. I got these off of Ebay this past week. They came from the rear doors of a 4 door Torino wagon. They aren't the usual small rear door bases, that are found on 4 door Fords, but identical in every way to my original 2 door 1970 front standard bases.

    They sure do look good against black door panels :bananaman

    Jack, the auction listed it as being from 72-76 so they would have come from the Gran Torino era. Also states that they came from a Squire wagon.
