    Doubt if I would ever trade mine for anything,but if the oppritunity came about,I would strongly consider a 2 door 67 Plymouth Fury III. My Dad had one,in gold poly when i was about 6 years old,and always loved the looks of them.I'll get one some day.

    I would not trade the grabber, it is my baby..the comet i would trade for a 67-68 cougar at a similar level of completion only to replace the cougar the wife sold to fund restoring the grabber... ;)

    Traitors!! haha.

    I wouldnt trade my dream mav for anything. There are a couple older cars that would be termpting (like a Mach1) but iv'e actually grown to love the looks of a mav/comet almost above anything. Plus I think a show quality Maverick is about as rare as it gets (considering most people dont really restore mavs/comets like that) so it'd be pretty awesome to build one, and then go put down an 11second 1/4 mile after the show would be icing on the cake.... although the Saleen S7 would still be cool to have...

    I think if I was gonna trade the maverick for anything itd have to be 1 of a kind (like the mav(y)) Maybe jet powered...remote start and drive, bullet proof, huge rear fins and come with a cool utility belt!!! You guessed it. I want....

    THE BATMOBILE!!
    Or Airforce 1. lol. either way I think its fair.

    Way back when I traded a Mustang for the Maverick I have now. I have no intentions of ever trading my Maverick, but if the opportunity should arise that I could trade the Maverick for a fully restored 1969 Mach 1 I would jump on it. I owned a Mach 1 once and I loved that car. But I don't think I'll dwell on that dream too much. I seriously doubt anyone would trade a Mach 1 for a Maverick.
