    I am wondering if there is anybody in the Cleveland OH area willing to pick up a few parts and ship them to me or hold them for me till I can get up there? If you are, message me and I will give you more info.

    thanks, Joel

    PS these parts will be for Isaac's 76 Maverick. He is 8 years old and is trying to get things together to fix it up.

    I'm just posting to say that having an 8yr old interested in a Maverick is awesome! He surely won't be disappointed! :thumbs2:

    Thanks! I took him to the Gathering in July and he asked me on the way home when he could get his own Maverick, I told him that I didn't know. In the mean time, I have been looking for a parts car for me and my brother, and I called on this car that was on Craigs list for sale that wasn't very much, thought it wou ld make a good parts car for the price. we went to look at it and there was no rust on tha car and and said that all it needed was a fual pump. Was way better shape than a parts car would be. I didn't have enough $$ to buy it but he did. so now my 8 year old boy has his vary owm 76 Maver ick to fix up. he is truing to get money saved up to by parts and stuff. I also thought it would be something that him and I could do together as father/son.

    I could meet you in Columbus and then drive the parts to Xenia. That way he wouldn't have to drive as far!

    the parts are a right front fender and a set of rear leaf springs. I don't think the fender would fit in a maverick, the springs would.
