    I am looking at a 76 mav 4 door for sale and need to now what parts will cross over to earlier years and 2 doors. I also need to know how much interest there is for the parts I do not want. All I really want are the disc brakes. The car is just about rust free including the floor pans and the rear quarters and trunk drops. Any input will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    Every mechanical part will cross over, beyond the doors, the rear window, trunk lid and the interior minus the dash.

    Buy it take the disc brakes off put drums back on it and sell it for a little bit of a profit.

    How much do they want for the car?
    You can buy the disc brakes brand new for just over $500. www.discbrakeswap.com

    Yes...the lower rear quarters are the same behind the rear wheels up to the beltline.

    If the car is solid and decent....please don't part it out.

    Does he want it with drums? lol. I can pick it up for $700 tops possible $600. It also runs good. Only thing wrong with it is the headliner is torn up.
