    Am a new member here..found it while surfing for OEM parts to rebuild a 75' Maverick 4-dr my gf's son bought and left behind. The gf drives it now and affectionately calls it her "Green Beast". Just got bad news that front end needs work and just dropped $400 into all new brake system so I guess it will be a keeper..lol. Am looking to restore it as a project car and any advice on where to find OEM body and interior parts would be appreciated.

    Howdy and :Welcome:
    There are no reproduction body or interior parts made for these cars other than quarter panel skins, which are available from Auto Krafters. Ebay is probably the best source for NOS parts but there is not a lot there either.

    TYVM for the greetings. Just showed my gf the site since it is "her" green beastie. Incidentally, the very first car I ever learned to drive in was a pumpkin orange 77 mav w/white vinyl top.
