    74 Maverick Grabber W/250 - 6, and a C4
    Greetings from a new member

    Hi all! I'm a new member to the board but will probably become a regular before very long. We just picked up a 74 Maverick grabber for my soon to be driving 16 (next week) year old son Andy. It's a 250 6 with a C4, and is in amazingly good original condition, especially when you consider we picked it up for $350. I'm a ford man from way back, I have a 65 Mustang fastback I've owned for over 22 years, and a 70 Mustang fastback that I just recently (and begrudgingly) passed down to my 17 year old son brad. anyhow here are a few pics of the car... not sure how you guys are about posting pics, I tried to knock the size down a bit, also follow the home page link to a page with more & bigger pics.

    sounds like a hella good deal to me........looks good for an original car. I am not a fan of the big bumpers but otherwise I would not have hesitated to steal that one for 350.00 good job welcome to the board looking forward to hearing more.

    You didn't buy that car you stole it!!! That is sharp. Hey I'm from Portland, what part of town are you in. My father lives in Tigard but has a Beverton address. Welcome to the board, and as I always ask unless it has already been asked "Have you thought about joining the MCCI"? Great news letter, great people, great get togethers!
