    73,2dr,302,AC,buckets,was an LDO I think...has glove compartment.
    Absolutely no rust...period...no accidents...ever, was repainted 2 years ago to original color and small dings were skimmed then.
    it's not perfect though, needs rear roll pan,has a ticking lifter and the front buckets need recovering in original black, column shifter will be removed and an original floor shifter will replace the Z-gate.
    Here are some pics.
    P.S....thx John Ford

    I'ts gonna be a daily driver Dan...I bought it for my youngest daughter, she gets her permit next year.
    Get this, I bought her an 83 stang convertible...sittin in the garage ready to go right now. I found this car thx to a post by John Ford and gave her the choice...keep the stang or sell it and buy the Mav...She said she wanted the Mav...hands down.
    She knows how to make her Daddy proud.:)
