Greetings, new to forum. Just got my 73 up and running. Was in heated storage for the last 5 years. Went through most everything you can think of and its lookin fine, runs great. Gold Glow, 302, 17,000 original miles. I have the original bill of sale.
Welcome from "next door" to our Maverick Comet world on the www. Lots of Maverick/Comet activity in "our" area of the country.
...few more pics, all original interior is as close to mint as could be, engine has all original paint and besides the fresh air intake plasic piece all ther, air actually works!! And thanks for all the welcomes
Wow that is a very highly optioned car when reading the broadcast sheet on it it says and 20 other luxury oriented product features is interesting I cant even imagine what all of them would be after reading the first part of that sentence. Looks like it has been kept in a time capsule,very nice
I don't know the full story behind the car. My friend runs a huge shop/storage here in medina ohio and his boss owns quite a few old cars. Being a ford guy I always kept my eye on it. He bought it in 2011 at a kiko classic car auction and had plans to make it a shelby/maverick but wound up never getting around to it and its been in storages since 2011. I bought it in june. Wasn't sure what I was getting but it has exceded my expectations. I was going to fix what needed and sell it but I'm really diggin it and will for now keep it. Its been repainted at some point in time but the paint job is very nice. Car has virtually to no rust and is very solid throughout. Runs really good with just alittle tweaking here and there. Will probably keep it the way it is and drive it
