Came in to say hello, I just picked up a 70 maverick this weekend. I think I gotta pretty good deal on it. Solid body, solid floor. Buncha extra parts that i haven't even gone through yet. And a box of transmission parts, the guy completly dissasembled the transmission and put it in a plastic tub. Here some pics of it after I got it home. http://www.dropbox.com/gallery/173187/1/maverick?h=2d1c26 I'm sure I'll be around to ask some questions. Probably the first one will be what to do with a box of transmission parts.
from a fellow 70 owner in Northeast Pennsylvania Where are you from? Is the body as nice as it looks?
I'm in North Carolina. And yes, the body is suprisingly solid. If it had a transmission it could be driven as is. I check the floor boards and trunk all solid. The bottoms of the doors are good to.
welcome from the mitten! looks like it was a 6cyl originally, can hardly make out the vin. but nice high back buckets, sport steering wheel, and looks like a/c vents in the dash.... sweet!
Love the traction bars . Isnt the c-4 trans getting a little rare? I would save the transmission. Also seems like a lot of 1970 mavericks lately
VIN is 0K91T127471 Door tag says it was originally red, with a C4 and 3.08 gears. I've never put a transmission together. Wouldnt be so bad if If was the one that took it apart.
C4's are GREAT and fairly easy to rebuild. I bet even if you paid someone it wouldn't be more than $300
