    I'm in central Ohio. If anyone can help a fellow out on a Pre74' Mav let me know. I was trying to get plane tickets to S.C. until I heard Brian had sold his 73'.

    maverick5946 do you mean Pataskala? I live about 50 miles northwest of there. Did you make it to the Ford Expo at National Trail Raceway a couple of weeks ago? There was about a dozen Mavs or Comets in attendance. I was looking to Restomod a Pinto wagon before the expo, but after my son and wife saw all the Mavericks they made me change my mind. I think it's for the better.

    yep! Thats the town.
    I live in Louisville, KY.
    Dave Moore one of our MCCI members and mmb user lives there. I did not make that expo, but I believe that there was several people from this board that was in attenedance.
    Good luck in your search........and I agree getting a Mav/com over any other car is for the better.

    I live in Prospect. There was a lot of nice Mav/Comets at the expo!! I hope to have one of them for next year!! Have a line on a 70 Mav right now, but the guy can't find the title. It's a 6cyl 3sp car. I think a 302 with a 5sp would make it much better.

    Hi mike.Would you be interested in a 70 2door mav?I'm in northeast Tn near knoxville.It has no engine,but I've set it up for a v8,5lug rear and disc brakes in front.It's got a c4 to go with it,extra grills,headers,a floor shift column and a floor shifter and the grabber spoiler set for the back(if you want it).Really solid AL car,blue w/white vinyl top and a good black interior.I just don't have the time or cash to do this car right,like to see someone make a nice car.PM me if you're interested.Thanks,Tim
