    Two 1973 LDO Mavericks (one 4 Drag one 4 driving like Mad on the roads :) ) also have a 75 6cyl Stock! Ok, well sort of Stock :P
    i dont think i have ever seen a post like this but i started one on some other forums and they seem to be a hit! STICKY? maybe? ;)

    anyhow i always post where, when and a cell phone photo which makes it a reason to look at. maybe someone on here will know them or maybe it might just be you! ;) must be on the street or hwy no car shows ;)

    so i will start! here it goes:

    Spotted 2 door Maverick 70-72 Grey in So Cal on the 57 fwy northbound Diamond Bar area about 5:30 or so back in March on the 8th last year.

    Spotted 4 door Comet 74 to 77 White in So Cal on the 10 fwy west bound(id put the date but its been so long i forgot.) lol!

    So people post up if you see any on the road! It will be rare but a site to see for everyone!

    I need to carry my camera with me, but I never see any mavericks or comets on the road around here.
    I shouldn't say never, but in the last 10 years and would be willing to bet less than 3, that wasn't going somewhere with me.

    I'm just guessing here, but it looks like you might've taken that picture on your blackberry, at around 9/8/2008, more precisely - at 5:34 PM. :yup:

    (right click on photo, select properties, summary, advanced).

    I got a surprise today and was passed by what looked like a pretty nice, white, 4 dr. Maverick on 11 mile corner road just north of Eloy, Az. today. First time I've seen it. Hard to take a pic when your driving a big truck down a 2 lane at 60mph.:)
