    Well yesterday, I went down and picked up a bunch of Maverick parts from an aquaintance of mine. He was moving and needed to get some of his Maverick stuff out of there. Keep in mind that everything I got was not all he had. He also kept a bunch of stuff for himself. Also, and I don't mean to gloat, but everything was FREE!! WOOHOO. Sorry..... :) I still need to sort through it all and figure out what I want to keep for myself, but once I do that I'll let you guys know what is available. We filled up the back of our pickup with parts. Some items of particular interest to me are:

    -Grabber Hood
    -Grabber Spoiler and Extensions
    -Small Bumpers, and lots of small bumper brackets
    -70-72 Fenders
    -Nice 70-72 front Valances (2)
    -Nice Rear Valance
    -Stone guards for small bumper Maverick/Comet
    -Comet GT scoop
    -Dash trays
    -Interior panels, etc.
    -Exterior lights
    -8" center section
    -Lots more

    There is tons of more stuff in the boxes. It would take me too long to list it all... Here's a couple pics.

    Just wanted to share. :)

    Hey T.L., maybe one of your fellow Pinto enthusiasts will move away soon and leave you a bunch of free stuff! :D
