    I have an original Window Sticker for my Car from Marti .... but I figured I would tweak it a little to display at car shows so everyon knows what the car has .... I still have to research the prices but I have most of them ....

    Front Disc's were $26.32 (wholesale) and $31.00 (retail) in 1974 if that helps.

    Thanks ... I have the Book of Fords ... or whatever its called at work ... it lists all the options prices for all the Ford cars as well as production numbers and stats .... so hopefully I can track most if not all down ...

    Although I do have a feeling that the total price is gonna be quite a bit less than I actually have in it ...

    How about the 302 engine? I have the other none Maverick prices from 1971 Torinos and Mustangs. I'll have to see how the 73 prices compare with 71 prices when I check my book in my drawer at work.

    71 Mustang:

    4-speed with Hurst ... $216
    Traction-Lok $45
    Wide Oval Tires $13

    The list I have one prices by the car,
    6-Cyl Grabber $2254.47 Wholesale to dealer, $2620.00 Suggested Retail
    8-Cyl Grabber $2358.91 Wholesale to dealer, $2742.00 Suggested Retail

    These are 74 prices dated Sept/73 so I would think the whole car price would be more than a 71, but the options should be close in price, I have another book somewhere, it's like a pocket guide to option prices, I'll look around for it.

    The price list also states, "Three Speed Manual Transmission Not Available in the State of California) Weird??

    Dan, if you display that on your car - you know we will never be able to get "those people" that insist that Mavericks came with 4 speeds from the factory, off our backs. They will swear they saw an original Maverick Grabber with the window sticker and everything to prove it! How are we ever going to convince them otherwise .... :cry:


    Pretty cool lookin" .... :clap: :dance:
