    My understanding is that a company doing inventory for Ford has discovered all the original Maverick toolings. Since Ford is hurting for money all the toolings (Regular hoods, Grabber hoods, fenders, floor plans, 1/4 panels, complete doors, etc ...) have been sold to a big name company that produces Mustang sheetmetal ... Within the year repops should be available ... hopefully at prices comparable to Mustang repop sheetmetal! :bananaman

    Man with a crazed look in his eyes just spoted heading south on the Pennsylvania Turnpike towards the Allentown airport. He was last seen driving a 1970 Maverick, with badly rotting quarter panels, clutching a plane ticket to Cumming, GA. carrying a brick. If spotted, give him 2 cheap Mustang quarters and convince him that they are for a Maverick. It's the only way to stop him.

    Really would have got some attention if you could have posted that under Ford Industry News under the mav.bot ID. (y)
