    Also, I need to buy a windshield and a reflector for the car. I'm in the Chattanooga, TN area if anyone has those that they could sell to me. Thanks.

    Looks like a nice clean, un-molested car. I would pay that, maybe more. (y)
    But as with anything, you'll find some guys that think that's too much, but it's best to start with the best car you can find/afford.
    Looks pretty plane jane, does it have a carpet, or a rubber mat?

    X2 with dave. Mighta coulda talked him down, but still a fairly nice looking car, and decent platform to start a cool project with.

    Looks like you have bought yourself a very nice, solid car. In my opinion, that car is well worth what you paid for it. Welcome.:tiphat:

    I'd bet, you'll find the build sheet. Plus, it's has Ginger interior, if you have plans to change it to Black, those door panels are hard to find, so don't dye them.

    I agree with Dave. That looks like a really nice Maverick you've got there. It's not like these cars, in that shape, are everywhere.

    :hmmm:...I was planning to dye mine black. Unless someone has some black ones they want to trade. I just missed a pair on ebay that went for $9.99 and they were nice too.
