Where I spent my vacation..

Did you buy the spoiler setup?
Those '74 Grabber seats in orange may be salvageable.

Yep, I bought the spoiler setup. I will be selling it soon, bigger job than I thought to put it on my car. There are tons of bucket seats in much better shape than those shown...many are useable as they are. Also found about 10 shiftless steering columns and as many floor shift cars in either variety. I wish I had the money to buy them all and the time to pull them. I will be making more of an effort either in August or next spring. I bet I looked at between 40 or 50 cars in different locations all very (if not totally) complete. I grew up in this area so I had a good idea where to look. I brought home one car and a bunch of parts. I will probably take requests on the next trip out.

 

jpollard; if you get a floor shift column, keep me on your list. I need one, but it is not a must right now. Let me know about shipping to Jenkinsburg, GA (30234) and total price. Sounds like a great time! Later,

 

The red '73 looked pretty straight.

Wow! I thought I hit the jackpot a few years ago when I found a yard that had 4 or 5 Mavericks in it, but this is incredible!

The yard I had found is now gone. The guy who owned it had a Maverick and had already stripped the best parts off them all. He wanted too much money for any of the parts that were still left.

 

...and I didnt even post all of the pictures!!!

 

Reminds me of the junkyards around here back in the 80's.
It's wasn't hard at all find the part you were looking for.

 

What city in Montana? It's not that far from Washington State. And I have a tool box & a pickup truck.....LOL And can have the use of a car trailer. I would be in Maverick/Comet heaven if I could get to that place. I'd be like a kid in a candy store (which one first). hehehe! I want a small front bumper, filler, & lower valance with turn signals (for my 73 Comet). Enough, before I cry real tears......
