Sprints?

Of the 254,964 Mavericks produced in 1972 how many of them came as Sprints???

 

I believe Dennis (Mavaholic) has the exact figure from his Marti Report, but I believe it is around 15,000 total, with about 4000 factory V8's. We'll see how close I am if Dennis replies.

 

Wow...4000 v8 cars. That's a lot of v8 Sprints. I wonder what happened to them all. I'd be surprised if there was more than 200 of them left considering how many of them have been accounted for them on here. I think I'll keep mine.

 

mine was a 6. it's a keeper also.

 

Did everyone see the one on craigslist in AZ for $15,000? It looks really good.

 

for $15k it'd have to look DAMN good.

 

just saw that. it's right down the road from me. anyone want to send me the $15k and i'll run right down and get it. i'll just keep it here for you.

 

Yeah, $15K IS alot, but it really did look good. No underhood pictures though, and for $15K it would have to be fully show quality underhood, in the trunk, and the undercarriage too. But assuming a concours type restoration, I guess it COULD be worth that. They ARE one of the rarest models, if not THE rarest...

 

problem is i would have to seal it in a vault in the garage. here in az the rocks fly all over from the trucks. i guess they do everywhere. about an hour before getting to dulles for the roundup i had a big rock hit my truck windshied. got it replaced the day after i got back. going to the mountains last monday it got cracked again. the insurance company is going to love me.

 

Any USA Decals out there

Hey guys and gals does anyone out there have any USA Decals for the 72 sprints kicking around that they are looking to part with if so let me know.

 

i see them on ebay every once in a while. that's where i got mine.

 

I sell reproductions. Email me direct.

 

I just caught this thread. There were 15,425 Sprints made. It cost too much money to get the breakdown per engine and transmission combinations so I do not have that information.

Jim Osborn is another source for the side badges.

Also check out this thread. I would love to add your Sprint to the Registry.

Yeah, I'd second eBay on that one.
There are a few Stang parts houses that put them there for a 'Buy it now' of around 6 or 7 bux.
New Hampshire Mustang Parts is one for sure.
BIN up almost constantly.

Edit:
Osborn is cheaper. $5.50
Thanks Mavaholic.

 

Gotta be careful where you get your 411. Mustang Sprint USA shields are not the same as Maverick. Most Mustang parts suppliers wouldn't even know that. No matter how much anyone spends, they need to get the RIGHT part.
