    1970 MAVERICK
    Hi everyone, well I have finally done it, joined your board.I'm glad to be here and thought I should introduce myself.I had a 1970 Maverick as a first car at 16 and have wanted another one since then, which was a few years ago:rolleyes: . Anyway last week I found a very nice 1970Mav in great shape but someone put a front end off a comet on it. I'm piking it up in 2 weeks. I look forward to advice on how to get the front end back the way it should be and all the neat things about these great Fords and Mercs. Thanks Trudy I'll try to post some pics in the gallery

    Welcome to the forum! Swapping the front end is fairly simple, finding the parts is a little harder. Maybe one of the Comet people on the board has some Maverick pieces to swap you.
