    Hi new to maverick ownership, just got a 73 4 door with a 302 and auto tranny.

    Car needs some audio work and I don't think the brake lights are working either.
    The outside looks pretty good, there is next to no rust for a 40 year old car. Its got a rattlecan paint job but I kinda dig the look of it, might get a macco paint job but i'm not sure yet. Also needs a headliner put in, but interior is mint.
    It's pretty loud, not sure if it has a muffler on it but its raining (thanks sandy) so I haven't done much but drive it home.
    Other than that it runs great, is in overall great shape and is a blast to drive.

    Looking forward to working on it and using the forum for help!
