    Hi,
    Wanted to stop by and introduce myself and my new-to-me '72 Maverick.
    Car is a 1 owner from Phoenix AZ and spent its entire life there.
    Car has the original 200CID I6 wth auto trans, AC, power steer, manual drum brakes, and original black/houndstooth interior.

    I will be placing a wanted ad later today for the following items:
    Front standard armrests – both sides
    1 Bench seat headrest
    AC Center Vent – not the whole chrome vent unit, just one of the black moveable vents
    Front hood molding
    Front grille emblem: ‘Maverick’ script, not the round medallion.

    This Maverick is replacing my previous weekend car: Superformance Mark III with Hi-Po 289 power. The Maverick gets more thumbs-up from people and does not mess up the wifes hair :)
