    Hi there ...

    I am new to this site ... I just got a 1974 Maverick ... 200 cc 6 cil. engine ... it is in pretty good shape (I will upload some pictures as soon as I figure out how to do that ... :)) ... but after 38 years, "my baby" already needs some parts ... any suggestions as of where to look for parts and accesories? ...

    Regards and cheers from Mexico ...

    Welcome to the Forum from Alaska.
    Ebay is a good place to look ans this Forum has a section for parts for sale.
    Good luck, and enjoy your build

    Looking to do a bumper conversion but need the parts I own a 75 Ford Maverick. Any ideas on what model the small bumpers should come off of??

    I own a 75 Maverick and I live in New Mexico..I have gotten my parts from craigslist,ebay, and there arre still manufatureres making Maverick parts in Brazil. It is a little bit more expensive to ship internationally, bu it is hard to find Maverick parts..

    I use e-bay a lot!

    In fact I just ordered brake parts, and my "NEW" (not remanufactured) Bendix Master Cylinder had a build date of January 30, 2012, so there are still companies making products for these cars--even mundane brake parts.

    Oh, and welcome to the site!

    All the small bumpers are the same 70-73 except for the front bumper on a 73.
