    Howdy gang - I just recently picked up a '77 from a friend of mine for a mere $100 bucks!! Got a lot of rust but no major holes or dents, needs a tune up and a carb rebuild and L O T S of interior work lol but runs like a top. I'm hoping the folks here will be a great resource for parts since they seem to be scarce around here (Nashville TN area). :bananaman

    Welcome to the board! Sounds like you found yourself a pretty decent $100.00 Maverick! Glad to see some deals like that can be found!

    Hey thanks for the replies guys..... maverick5946, i'd love to get together sometime. Since I've read some more posts here, I can see how sincere you guys are about your Mavs, so I think I'll fit in nicely here lol :clap:

    For the record, mine is a '77 with the 250 i6, automatic on the column, stock carburetor from what I can tell but it needs to be rebuilt, no AC but power steering. It's the darker blue that almost looks metallic (well, used to before all the rust lol), used to have a vinyl top but of course it's long gone and I'm gonna repaint once the inner works are taken care of. The body's in pretty good shape despite the rust, no holes or major dents. I'll get some pics put up next weekend after I pick up a camera. (y)

    Looking forward to contributing.....
