    so i was at the local pull-n-save and came across a 72 2 door with what looked like a 200 factory ac automatic green exterior and black interior. the car was pretty beat up. the floors were gone. the rear quarters were gone. front and rear valances were all bent up. both the front and rear bumpers were bent and smashed. it does have painted boomeranges and i would have grabbed them but we were in a hurry to get out of there. this was a utah car that never left the valley. it had a vintage local dealers tag on it. just a few cars down there was a 1972 ranchero with a 351c and a c6 small block bell transmission just a few cars down. i wish i had a few bucks to spend on it i would buy just to have it if i ever needed it. is there anything else i should have looked at on the maverick? i think i took a look to see if what was there was worth it or not.
