    The mav is gone but i'm still here!
    Looks nice :)

    There is some issues thought, it is not a grabber. Grabbers only came in 2drs.


    Also someone installed that cobra jet hood scoop backwards :hmmm:

    Ah, oops.. The hood scoop is what made me think it was a Grabber. So it's on backwards? Great.

    Yeah its backwards, this is how it's supposed to look:

    The one you have on is a reproduction and it's on backwards.

    Cobra Jet scoops were not ever available from the factory on any mavericks, only on other fords like the Mustang and Torino.

    Down in Mexico they were available as a dealer "add on" on mavericks, and that's the closest connection.


    I'm really digging the 4 door though, paint the hood the right color and fix the scoop and it's a really nice car (y)

    Thanks for checking out my Maverick. Was $1800 too much though? : (

    In my opinion 1,800 is fine, but it's not worth anything more than that.

    4drs really don't fetch any money. If it was a real grabber and a 2dr it would easily be worth double.

    I personally would pay $1800 for a 4 door mav if it what I was looking for, but my opinion really doesn't mean much. if you are happy, that is all that matters...just drive the car and ENJOY!
