A guy is selling me this Maverick with a V8 302 engine for $3000, do you guys think is worth it or overpriced?
Okay limme help you out. I rescued what i have from field. Since i started i,ve bought 1. Complete front suspension 2. Wilwood disk brake kit for front 3. Fuel tank 4. Rear drums and new componets 5. Front&rear shocks 6. Refresh and install engine (i had prior) with (bought gasket set,chain,cam, distro) 7. Radiator and hose 8. trans rebuild kit (i had trans) 9. junk yard front seats 10. Carpet 11. Miscellaneous nuts, bolt, lightbulb and electric switch and such. My point! Take inventory of condition of car. Price out what i,ve done this far. I still need wheels and tires, body work and paint. And still not rolling yet. My labor of love is free. Unthinkable what it would cost had i paid someone to do what i,ve done. Well over 3000 if you add another mans labor. Again take inventory of condition of car! I,ll let the experts chime in on specific of your question. Hope i helped.
I agree with Acornridgeman, also know for every spot of rust you see there is 5 times or more that you don’t see. Some people are good at hiding massive amounts of rust from buyers.
... look under the car...pour water into the cowl. have you ever owned an older car (70s). 3k may be a fair price in Mexico, there are some good looking cars down there...
I'd give 3000 pesos for it in a heartbeat. It looks good in the pictures. Definitely do the water in the cowl test.
