Sounds like a good recipient for a V-8...

: You might get $1500 for it...I got MY '73 V-8 Maverick in 1981 with 68,000 miles on it from the original owner (old man) for $1300. He was asking $1500 but talked him down a little. This car came with 302, cloth seats, dual sport mirrors, air conditioning, power steering, factory tint glass, and rear window defogger. Cars don't appreciate, they depreciate (unless it is a rare collectable; different story) but cars like these are getting difficult to find these days. Definitely a car worth restoring...especially a 2-door... : : : I have a 73 maverick 2 door that I believe I am going to have to sell. I bought a house and : : I have way to many projects as it is. : : I am the 3rd owner of this 65k mile car. It is the proverbial little old lady car since the 2nd : : owner bought it from the first owners estate. It is a 2door metallic silver (almost pewter) with : : a white vinyl top. It has a 250 (of which I rebuilt the whole head and carb) and an automatic : : tranny. The body is in good shape and the paint is shiny, It does has some soft rust spots : : in each quater and one fender. The brown interior is mint, really, there is a tiny 1/2" tear in : : the drivers side seatback from use but everything else is 100%. I put in a new radiator, had : : replaced all 4 wheel cylinders, replaced all shoes, cut all drums, fixed all brake lines and : : replaced the master. Since then the car has been driven 25 miles. I also bought some 1974 : : vintage Anson Sprint slooted mags and put on 4 new 14" GT Qualifiers. : : I also have but not installed yet is a complete electronic ignition from a 77 car, a complete : : power steering system, and complete power front disk brake system. I also have another : : radiator, extra headlight/taillight bezels. : : The problem with the car is I believe the tank has too much sediment in it and it needs a : : new one. the only way to get the car running is to disconnect the fuel line/carb connection, : : crank the engine over and pump out the brown gasoline until it turns clear then reconnect : : it. It then runs fine until the car sits for a while again. I already have a tank from a 77 but : : haven't put it in yet. : : P.S. It still has the AM only Philco radio and single front dash speaker! : : Anyway, I'm sure this sound like a goldmine of Maverick stuff, kindof a project in a box. Can : : anybody honestly tell me what this whole package is worth? : : Is anybody interested in buying it? Im in southern CT.
