    Welcome Jim! I think you will like here. I see you have a Maverick and a Garnada ESS. I hired into Ford Wayne Assembly Plant, Wayne MI in July 1977. We were building the Garnada and Monarch till June 1980. The ESS (Europeon Super Sport) were nice espically the 302 4speed woth bucket seats and console. Where were 2 and 4 door models. They were rear back then I dont think there are two many left. Theses cars were the Maverick replacements. The Lincoln Versailles was also a limited addition to Mercury Monarch we also built that is hard to find. Today we build the focus. I have a 1974 Maverick Grabber and a 1969 Mach 1 Mustang. Joe

    hi Joe

    Hi Joe, yes I own a 77 4 door maverick, looking for a 69.5 to 73 2 door. My 78 ess granada came with 250 inlin 6 and factory 4 speed, looks like a 9 inch under it too. I have a friend with a 77 with a 351c dropped in it. I want the v8 power, thinkin on a 460, would make a nice sleeper. thanks...Jim
