    Would any of you maverick geniuses know what i can pull the wheel wells/tubs or whatever they are called ... out of.. to replace the decaying wells on my 72 maverick? I have a couple of cars i can pull from but im trying to avoid cutting up cars that dont need to be cut if they wont fit.. i have a spotless 1966 mustang body but that is a little to risky to cut if it wont fit.. i will chop the hell out of it to fix my mavi up though, nothing beats the mavi... NOTHING!!!! thank you very kindly ladies and gents...

    Find a Maverick or Comet for body parts - nothing else fits.
    If you are good with sheet metal work the get a larger car and modify that to work or repair what you have.

    I think I have a nice set out of a 72. I would have to look (way too many parts to keep track of them all). If you might be interested in them please message me. By the way, where do you live?

    Sheet metal shears, mallet, shrinker/stretcher, nothing better after a long day, than making a good flat sheet of steel into a pile of scraps:D. Eventualy you'll get something that works
