It will get a small block ford of some sort. Debating on injected 5.0 and AOD or carbed. Otherwise it's pretty much going to be a fun cruiser. The rest will pretty much be stock appearing and back to original design. As for pics, they were there, but will see if I can get them back.
Robert, no matter what you decide. We all support you. The car is what you make it. Money is the biggest factor in what we do. But, passion is what drives us to restore these cars. It's all up to you. Happy restore ing friend.
Well good news. We got it loaded up and moved to the shop so that we can get started on it. Have a later model 4 dr for suspension parts, and will go with a 302/c4 and keep a 70s vibe with it. Body will go back to original.
Welcome to the forum, You need a plan to start with an a theme for the car. It's up to you an your wallet. Good motoring to you both.
I don't know why anyone would want a stock Maverick (unless it was a 4-door). There's just too much potential to be better, and in stock condition, they're pretty boring. The only cars that should ever be left in stock original condition are those which are an investment. Mavericks/Comets are not investment cars. They're just a lot of fun when the right things are done to them.
