I'm one of those who can say first hand that you'll regret it. It's only money man! Just kidding. I just know that what you end up doing with the money will probably mean a lot less to you than that Avacado beauty.
: Hey,
: Long time since I've posted here, but I've been very busy. In fact So busy I have to sell My mav, I just don't have time to put the work into her like i want to. I want to break her all the way down to the frame and rebuild the beauty, but..... I'm Going full time to college, High school, and working 50hrs a week. Guess this restoration will have to wait for a while, till i settle down and get some free time.
: As for now, I must sell my car , specs:
: Year/MAke:'73 Ford Maverick
: Model:2 Door
: Engine: 250CID I6
: Exterior: Bright Green Gold Metallic
: Interior: Avacado
: Trans: Automatic
: Options: AM Philco Radio
: It's in great shape, no rust except a quarter size patch in the very corner of the one quarter panel. Interior is almost perfect except for a tear in the drivers seat and a crack on the dash.
: I've done Alot of work Already to this baby. IE:
: New:
: Windshield
: Brake System (master cylinder, brake cylinders, pads, lines, etc...)
: Turned Rotors
: All Wheel Bearings
: Ball Joints
: Head Gasket, Exhaust Gasket
: Oil Pan Gasket
: Oil Pump
: Distributor, rotor, points
: Starter
: Battery, Cables
: Alternator
: Solinoid
: Carbuerator, Fuel Filter, Lines
: NEW TIRES (only 10 miles on them)
: Headlights
: Water Pump
: T-Stat, Lines
: Spark Plugs, Wires
: Etc.....
: Over $2,00 put into her. I Wish I could come near to getting what she's worth or what I spent on her but i'll have to let her go for $2500. And thats Negotiable, somewhat, Otherwise I might just end up keeping her and letting her sit in the garage.
: Like I said not mush left to be done to her, She purrs like a kitten, and is as fast as hell. Only other reason for selling her is becuase i need something I can drive from NC to OK about once every 2mnths, and I dont want to kill her.
: Hope someone will be interested, I Live in North Carolina, Winterville/Greenville , Phone#: (252)321-1072
: All Inquiries welcome !!
: Thanks Guys,
