went to the pickapart in san bernardino(6th st.) and found this 73 mav still has a bunch of good parts bumpers,120speedo,ac parts,v8 mounts,bucket seats,power steering parts,valences i think this was the first time i saw a mav at the JY and i didnt get anything
At least your junkyard knows how to get the hood open. My local Pull-A-Part has had a '76 Maverick (crushed now) and a '71 Comet (mostly still there) and in both cases when they were setting it up they tore the vent knob out of the driver's side then opened up the hood with a forklift. Which is all fine and good since I don't need a hood, but if they ever get a Grabber in there I will simply cry.
when i first went to look at my first maverick i went to pull that vent knob and it just came all the way out and my heart dropped lol
Yep. Both of 'em 4-doors. The Mav that's gone now had a completely straight body before they twisted it up with the forklift. The Comet (Comrick, actually) got the same treatment although it didn't start off as nice. I kinda wonder if that car didn't spend some time flooded.
I probaly won't be able to make it out there for another week but where is this place at? I need some V8 stuff and brackets for my upgrade.
That is the old entrance the new one is on 6th st. same yard just a new entrance. I'm sure if you were just there you entered from 6th st. Wouldn't want anyone to get lost.
