    99% sure, it's a yes. Unless, someone put a 289 in it at some point. More than likely, it is a 302 though.

    Whats the vin, and the codes off the sticker on the "B" piller?
    Orange interior was only available for Maverick Grabbers and Comet Gt's in 73 & 74, you could not get a standard Maverick or Comet with Orange interior.
