    before the '77 goes off to Maverick heaven :(, i thought i would snap this shot of all three Maverick generations. small bumper, medium, and big bumper. the really sad thing is that i put some gas in the tank of the '77, stuck a battery on it and drove it off of the trailer for this picture :cry: it's almost a shame to part it out untill i look at the framerails....

    but anyways, he's some pics...

    Dave....if it is just the frame rails....I would save the car. That is an area that once the repairs are made.....totally invisible for the most part. Plus....no bondo required. If the rest of the car is solid......save it!!!

    cool pic.

    i agree with the others, you should just fix it. (y) if it was a comet i could understand parting it out, but this is a maverick and it deserves to be fixed :rofl:

    well it needs both rear rails, the rear support brace that runs from one frame rail to the other, rear bumper inner structure, trunk pan, both front floors and toeboards, one partial torque box on passenger side, the whole complete torque box on the driver's side, dr. side fender and dr. door..... :(:(:(

    rust pictures from underneath....

    Wow, it's pretty rusty...maybe just park it for awhile, it couldn't make it any worse.
