    I have a 76 comet and had a 74 and 73 maverick. I was going to put the 74 doors on my Comet. I looked close at them and looked to me like they were the same. I sold the 74 before I hacked it up too bad so I never did do the swap.

    The doors are Identicle between the Mav and Comet...The only difference being the innner door handle was relocated in 73 and changed in designe.

    I have Maverick Doors for sale.

    I have some maverick doors for sale both are in very good condition. They are grabber doors so they have the duel sport mirrors.

    Don't forget though that most Comets have a curved trim strip on the door that does not match any Mavericks. My 75 is the base exterior trim and it has the strip.
