    I have a 74' Ford Maverick 4-door, I got it from a old friend of the grandparent's out of California. She was getting old and couldn't see well so the doors have a few dings. Anyways I received it with a freshly rebuilt engine (250 6Cyl 3.1L) however whoever rebuilt it didn't test it and I get to find out it had a cracked block. =/
    So I recently went out to Kingman, AZ and bought a 76' Ford Maverick 4-door with the same engine for $500 and it has not one ding on the doors. So what I need to know, is the body of a 74' Maverick the same as a 76' Maverick so I can swap the doors out?
    Thanks to all who reply _0_
