Was at teh junkyard today looking for parts for the Cougar, and anything I might scrouge for the Mav and had to shoot this....
For real!!! They might have dented in the floorpan of that wagon!!! J/K...at least it wasn't a small bumper Grabber or Sprint. But if you think that's bad, you need to go to Craigs Maverick Heaven and check out those poor cars.
I'll bet the disc brakes are still good! Maybe quite a few other things. The yard is in the business of selling those parts, they will unbury that thing and pull the discs off if you ask. Probably get a good price on the parts too. They usually don't start stacking them like that until they have decided to crush. If you catch it before it hits the crusher and buy things off it, they make more money that way. You buy off it now, and ask them not to crush it because you may want more, they will usually set it aside for you until crush time comes back.
Actually this yard scapes very few if any cars built before 1980, which is why i go there so much There are quite a few usable parts and I be back next weekend to grab the frint bench seat (no rips), discs, and a couple other odds & ends. Only problem is they think everything is worth its weight in gold especilly if they know what it came off of. I'll pull parts and say its from a late model and generally get it cheaper cole639, I was thinking something more along this line
One day I'll get back to work on my convertible. http://mmb.maverick.to/showthread.php?t=13764&highlight=convertible
YIKES! There is a site called Maverick Heaven (I think) that has a ton of pics just tjis sad---it seems they LOVE to stack cars on TOP of the MAVs or Comets! What's up with that???
