    I really hope there is someone here, who knows where I can find a manual, so that my husband can put his maverisk together again, like it used to be, so that we can get it on the road again... I haven`t found so much here in Norway, so hopefully someone here can help us? I really appreciate it ;D

    Hpoe you understand my english, I`m trying my best, but I`m sure theres a lot of mistakes here ;D

    Welcome to the board. There are usually some chilton's manuals on ebay. Also, there are some people on here that usually have them for sale. I'm sure they'll pop on here in a while.:Welcome:

    :Welcome:

    Look down on the main page of the board and find the parts wanted section. Post there that you are looking for a manual. Your English is not bad at all, I have no problem understanding you. :)

    You can also use alldata diy, its an online service manual setup. I have one for every car I have.

    Hard copys are very helpful if you don't have a computer in your garage though.

    Along with Chilton manuals, look for Haynes manuals too. Not as well-detailed as a Chiltons, but might be easier to find.

    I bought a Haynes for Mustang II when I first got my car, and honestly, i use it more than I do the chilton that is written FOR the Maverick.

    Except for front suspension, most of the rest of the car is nearly identical.

    I just couldn't find the book for the Maverick early on (before I got on here) and the Mustang II book was all over the place. So I grabbed it!

    What part of Norway are you in? I have family in Trondheim (sp?) and we have a member in sweden that goes over there often. I have been sending him parts for his maverick when he gets a long shopping list of stuff he cannot find.
