    I saw a few different forums this could have gone under, so I decided to post it here.

    I have a 75 Granada we used as a doner car to fix up our 61 Comet.
    Thing's I've taken off the Granada- 250 I-6, C4, brake booster and M/C, fuel tank (for my 56 f-100). The 8" rearend was to wide so I put it back in. I'm planning on removing the front spindals and brakes.

    Other than those things, what else is worth it to remove before I have it scrap'ed? all of the body and glass is in great shape.

    How much of the front end do I need to remove to do a front disc conversion? re; controle arms, tie rod ends, steering?

    I'd really hate to scrap it then :huh: have to go looking for parts I all ready had.

    Thanks in advance.
    and if you want any of this stuff, come and get it.

    The rearend is a direct bolt in for any year Maverick. Assuming it is a 5-lug unit then someone would want it. :D

    Yes, it is a 5 lug.
    Everything fit good to go into the Comet as far as space between leafs.
    But we put 3" lowering blocks, and the only way to take off a tire would be to drop a spring hanger. So the old rearend went back in.
    Thanks Gene
