    I was looking over another Maverick Website ( It can't compare to this one) Anyway it looked like during eith the 1970 or 1971 year Comets there were about 2% made with factory 4 speeds. Can anyway verify that this is correct information.

    Not True .... 0% came from the factory with 4-speeds ...

    Thats just another one of those myths along with 4 bbls and 351s that some swear is true. A 3 speed was the best you cound do.

    Nope, no 4 bbls or 4-speeds, because then it would have dusted the flagship muscle car (Mustang) and they couldn't have any of that. :tsk:
