    Traded my 23' car trailer to the guy I bought my black mav from and he called today offering me a complete 70 mav as a parts car so, the question is do I get it or not? Already have 4 cars in the drive and two in the backyard so trying to figure out where she'll go if I get her. The mrs finally relented and said I can get her if I want but only have a week to decide. Anyone in Wa or Or who needs any parts for a 70-72' Mav let me know cuz the guy I am getting them from is having the other 6 hauled out in a week or so.

    In 1 week you can thrash late a couple of evenings and strip the parts car to a skeleton. Stash all the parts in the other 4 cars. Haul off the rusty junk that is left and your parking problem is solved.

    You came to the wrong place if you're expecting to hear something other than "get it". :D

    Because, having grown up in Erie, and watching my Dad's 1970 rust to nothing over the ten years he drove it, salty roads and bad winters are a KILLER!

    Put it in my driveway. I'll have her stripped down over the weekend. Then haul the shell to the crusher. I'm not far away. But, I don't have a car trailer....

    If you look up... wa-a-a-y up... I'm just over the border in Vancouver, Canada... but I don't have a passport at the moment so I might as well be a million miles away... can't cross over with just a driver's license any more... does your buddy have any Comets in that field of Mavericks?
