$750. Body looks good, but this is a plain jane mav that will need a total overhaul and a lot of the basic parts swapped out.
I think I can get titles for them without paying the back registration. There's a loophole in the CA vehicle code for classic cars. I've never...
Not much of a fan of Comets I take it? The floors didn't look too bad on either car when I looked at them briefly. But, I didn't get a good look...
Good point. The back seat of the Comet looks like a pack of mice have been chewing on it and making nests out of the foam. I'll have to put out...
Here's a picture of trailering the Comet home and a final picture of them both sitting comfortably in my garage. It was worth all of the effort...
Here are some pictures of the Maverick after a good washing. Still need to clean out the interior, which is a mess.
Here are some pictures of the Comet after I sprayed the grime off and washed it. Note the black stripes on the door jamb, which give away that...
This weekend I picked up a 1972 Maverick Grabber and 1972 Mercury Comet GT :bananaman. Shout out to Red1972Grabber for giving me the lead for...
If I had to guess, people are getting more of a tolerance for fixing rust buckets as time goes on and that parts cars are not being considered...
I'm curious where everybody draws the line between a parts car or a restoration candidate. I know everybody will have different opinion on this...

Do you have a picture handy of your armrest or the standard Comet ones?
I'm curious how to identify a Comet GT. My thoughts: Comet GT decals on fenders Hood scoop Sport mirrors Side stripes High-back bucket seats...
Any news on this? This would be a great addition to our info collections!
I would probably be interested, but would want to see what the options were for connection to headers/manifolds as well as the tailpipes.
I like the side scoops, flared fenders, and side exhaust, very nice work on that. The front and hood just looks out of place on an old car and...
Saw this Comet in Pismo Beach today. Looks like the ocean air has gotten to it...rust holes all over it. Looks like somebody is still driving it...
BTW, I'm not talking about the last 5-10 years as far as Mavericks becoming scarce. I'm talking about the last couple of years, especially the...
You bought that 4-door from Waterford eh? I saw that one listed for months and months. Since you have a surplus of Grabbers up there, point me...
I agree that the fact that restored Mavericks are so rare to see is one of the main attractions of owning a Mav. I know I've always liked having...
Separate names with a comma.
