I found a maverick that i'm fairly sure i can get my hands on for a good price, it's a 1973 Grabber (v8) with 60,000 original miles on it (!!!!). The lady bought it for her daughter to use for college, and after college she just parked it under a tree where it's been sitting for a couple of years.
So, basically, my question is...what's a fair price to offer, and what work will need to be done? Obviously the whole gas line will need to be flushed, probably rebuild the carb and do some other miscellaneous work...is there anything else major that needs to be done when the car has been sitting for a decade or so? Oil, tranny fluid, radiator, gas...what else?
Thanks!
