    Other than my three, I have seen one up the street in the guy's backyard that has been there for about 15 years+. On the road I have seen three others, and none in junkyards.

There has got to be alot more out here.

    I can tell you since I bought mine, I've had 4 friends each pick one up for restomod V8 projects. They can't believe how inexpensive they are. I've got another friend looking for one, but he is being very picky.

    I have a '72 2 door mav daily driver, and a '76 Comet daily driver that is a 4 door. Last week I nearly ran off of the road when I looked over and saw a '72 Comet 2 door next to me in traffic. In 4 years not counting mine I have seen 4 other mav/comets. I have a line on two parts cars, and another possible that I will be buying. That will give me 3 parts cars and 2 daily drivers . Country's doin' his part to stave off disaster. Preston

    Don't hate me for this one, but other than me n my dads cars, we had a 75. we stripped it out pretty good, prior to throwing a tire through the windshield of course. Then we sent it to the yard. I hate to say it but we chewed it up and spit it out. sorry... :(

    Just for the record: I saw a olive green 4-door Comet on the side of hwy 3 north of Shrevesport and south of the Arkansas state line. This was in mid April when I was coming home from North Carolina.

    Well living here in Las Vegas, I have only seen three besides mine. And I have been here for about 5 years. And back home where I grew up in Utah, I only knew of two.

    ive got a maverick and a comet. i know of one 77 broke down in a yard. theres another guy i know with a 71. there was one up the street but he sold it to a new member on here. theres 2 others that make the local cruises and i know a guy through racing junk who has a really nice 77 351c hidden away in his garage and right next to it is a full tube frame comet GT. i also met a woman at the gas station who has a beat to hell 73 4door in her back yard

    so thats about 10 in a 30 mile radius. my 4door comet is the only one that sees anything close to daily driver status tho
