hey everyone, its been a long time since i'v been on here to read around and such. I was wondering if any of you ontario maverick/comet nuts, know where i could get a complete replacement for the back end of my 72 maverick? *2 door*, i need everything behind the doors, wheel wells are shot, everything is pretty much scrap metal or rust at this point... except my gas tank, trunk could be replaced but if worse comes to worst i can patch it up ... i'm tryin to get my car atleast drivable by the end of the summer so my kids can finally go for a drive in a car that isnt made out of plastic... one thing i have learned from this experience is work from back to front, even though i have a stroked 302 under the hood, it isnt doing a damn thing for me with no ass end.. i really hope someone has even a clue to lead me on the right path, thank you all ever so kindly, everyone on this forum has always been friendly and a big help, its nice to be back ... vroom vroooooom...
Hi exactO, I'm in Port Dover. Don't have any leads for you at this moment, but I'll keep a lookout for you. Good luck. John B
Hi, We just had a pretty good discussion about this ... Are you sure you want to go through all that? There are good cars out there if you go outside the Rust Belt. You could enjoy it a lot sooner .... http://mmb.maverick.to/showthread.php?t=86787 http://mmb.maverick.to/showthread.php?t=86801
Jeff beat me to the punch!!! I was just going to post that thread. That thread describes the PERFECT way to fix your car. Here is that PERFECT thread again: http://mmb.maverick.to/showthread.php?t=86787&highlight=fix
Yep and when the ice age comes we'll dog sled to your place and take all those Mav parts out from under your frozen A#$. Welcome back Exacto.
Gonna have to be one heck of an ice age to reach me I hope... Hate cold weather... Only snowed here (Mobile, Alabama) worth mentioning once in my recollection and I'm 48. Sled dogs don't do well here lol. Might have to switch from skids to wheels somewhere north of here!
How far do you want to travel? There is one here in North Pole, the seller said the front end needs some work, but the rear end is good. I'm going to take a look at it next week.
i think i found a comet.. i'm waiting to find out how much the guy wants for it, might be a bit pricey so a little swindling of the wife might be my next plan of action
