    Hi Everybody,, I just joined the forum as well as the Maverick/Comet Club..I used to work at a Mercury dealership in the 70's and had the pleasure of working on the Comets ! Life and kids went on and my passion had to wait. I am now the proud owner of a 1972 Maverick Grabber.. I think I got a great price at $1950 it being a running car.. previous owner was building for the strip and has a lot of goodies, but also, removed a lot of things that will be fun to find.

    It's that green stuff that feels warmer than the white stuff and is a whole lot softer than ice :cry:

    I don't remember it either - I looked it up :D
