    My boss told me he saw a Maverick in one of the local yards and told me id better go check it out. When i found it i coudn't belive the dash pad was the color i wanted ,crack free and soft :clap:goin back tomarrow to get it. It also has a complete set of rallys i might grab if the price is right just to resale, not sure what they are worth any ideas.

    I've seen magnums sell for 400 plus in rough condition. They were stang one's though. But still it's probably the most wanted Ford OEM wheel. Even mopar guys buy em.

    Just buy the whole car. You can probably part it out to get your money back plus you'll have plenty of spare parts. Is it a V8, Discs ?

    Those arn't Magnums.Magnums are chrome those are just five spoke rallys.Still a cool wheel none the less,definately worth saving.
