I'm new. Here's my Mav!

My dad came across this Maverick a few days ago and passed the info on to me. We went and looked at it and I was surprised at what good of shape it was in. The only things missing are the two wiper arms, the steering wheel emblem, and the headliner. The two side lights are there, they are just in the trunk along with the hood ornament. Oh and also, there are two small holes in the hood where something used to be there. Anybody know what was supposed to be there?

1973 Ford Maverick, 250 6 cyl


Like it is right now, what is it worth? You'll never guess what I gave for it either.

Hi, everyone. I'm Jerry. Nice to meet you.

 

welcome to the site looks like a very solid car .. got to be worth around 1500.00

Welcome to the site.....

Nice car - So what did you pay for it?

 

Welcome from Ocala,Florida............

 

looks like a nice find.

 

Hey, thanks everyone!!

I gave $900 for it.

Any idea what those two small holes on the hood were for?

 

I can't see the holes in the photos but if they are up towards the front of the hood right above the radiator support - maybe it had hood pins at one time?

 

Actually, they are more towards the antenna.

 

Welcome to the site!

 

nice car well worth the 900. you gonna keep the 6cyl?

 

Excellent looking car for $900.oo. I gave $300.oo for my '75 when I bought it, but it did'nt look anywhere near as good as yours. I've got $8000.oo in it now, and it still looks like a $300.oo car. It did however, run awsome. Anyway, welcome to this place.

 

to the board. Nice looking car for $900....

 

Thanks, everyone.

I am indeed going to keep it the original 250 6 cyl. Gonna try to keep it all original.
