    Hello everyone!
    My husband and I purchased a 1974 Maverick and are planning on restoring the car. We're still not sure if we are going to do the restore to original or some other modifications along the way... I'm sure we'll figure it out.
    Take care,
    Stacey

    If you don't have the ability for pics or can't get them up right now, then this.

    Like I said in my first post. What is the stats on the Mav? I6 or V8?, ATX or MTX?, Floor shift or Column shift? Manual brakes or power? Air? :confused: etc,etc,etc.

    What is it???

    Well I'll tell you what I know at this point.

    It is a 74 Maveick I6, 250 Engine, Automatic trans...looks like this was switched out several years ago, as far at the exterior right now it is an ugly gold color, the interior has the original tan back seats and looks like a replacement front bench seat.
    All in all the car is going to be a project for many years to come but all in all there is very little rust and it does run!
    Thanks for the warm welcome!
    Take care,
    Stacey
