    Well I got the Sprint home Friday night instead of
    Saturday. The deal actually worked out really well,
    I got two Mav's - the Sprint and a '76 4 door Mav
    and many many parts came with it, a great package
    deal for only $900 total!!!
    It also worked out great because I have always wanted
    to fix up a 2 door Mav and after my son saw a 4 door on
    YouTube he has wanted to fix one up, so we fulfilled two
    wants for one great price!
    The 4 door runs fine needs some very minor work, it needs
    front and back glass and it has minor dents on the passenger
    side, has very very little rust. Because the back window was
    busted out rain broke through the tarp and the back seat needs
    re-upholstered.
    (my son got the good luck but I
    got the better car (y) )
    The Sprint though needs quite a bit of work, front floor
    pans need work, needs new paint, back quarter panels
    need replaced, some minor rust spots need taken care of
    some re-upholstery, some carb work, new accelerator cable
    needs new vinyl top too(where can I get it).
    Will get some pictures posted when I can!:) :tiphat:
