    Hey just want to say hi folks.. I finally got myself a maverick / comet I have wanted a 2 door unit for about 20 years and I finally found a '74 maverick 2 door with all original number matching 302 and everything. needs a motor rebuild and possibly a trans but the body and under side of this car is amazing. I got on to this website by general search on google and when I came here I noticed the website has the same look and feel as fordtrucks.com I am on there as 65f100CoryE. I found that site to be amazing for information and help and i am sure this one will be no different. loking forward to the rebuild and I may have questions and inquiries over the next few months.
