    Hi everyone!

    My name is Debbie and I'm in Ohio.

    I joined this group to hopefully pick some of your brains!

    There, I confessed!! lol

    My husband passed away in December and I inherited his 1970 Maverick.

    It's been sitting in our garage for the last 20 years and I figure it's time to sell it. Problem is, he had no idea what to ask for it and I've got even less of an idea!! :hmmm:

    I tried to upload a pic of it, but apparently the file size is too large.

    Here's what he told me about it:

    1970 Ford Maverick

    1966 289 Engine bored .030 over

    Ford Motorsport Cam M6250-A312 Balanced Crankshaft

    Roller timing chain at 2° Advance

    7 qt oil pan and windage tray

    High Volume oil pump

    Dual coil valve springs

    Hardened Retainers and push rods

    1.6 to 1 comp cams roller rockers with screw in studs and guide plates

    Hardened valve keepers

    EdelBrock intake manifold and 600 cfm Holly Carb vac secondaries

    Holly 7 psi Holly Fuel Pump

    Petronix Electronic Conversion Dist. Kit

    High Output Coil and Taylor Spark Plug Wires

    Hooker Header

    Double Core Radiator

    Dual Exhaust 2¼ with H pipe crossover

    8" rear end with 4:11 pos a traction

    10" front disc brakes

    Extra leaf rear springs

    14" Goodyear Eagle ST tires size P245 60R14

    C4 Transmission with B&M shift kit 2000 Stall Speed Converter


    I'd appreciate any suggestions and if I can figure out how to put pictures on here, I'll add those!!

    Welcome to the board. Sorry for your loss. It sounds like a very nice car. It's very hard to determine a price without seeing pictures of the car. Hopefully someone on here can help you post them. Good luck. :)

    Wow! You either know a heck of a lot about cars or you have an excellent memory!
    I too am sorry for your loss. I wish you the best on getting what the car is worth. There are always guys on here looking to buy cars. Good luck

    lol

    I don't know much about cars, that's why I married a mechanic!

    And I can't trust my memory, so he wrote that all down for me.

    Also sorry for your loss.

    The $4,500.00 looks to be about right in my opinion also.
