    Hi everybody I just purchased my first maverick last night she is a 74 two door red with black interior with a 250 and a/c. Loved these cars since i was 12, my dad guted one for his Ranchero project(I almost chained myself to the rusted thing). The only upgrade i want to do is put disk brakes on the front of it, ive had bad luck with front drums. So hello and thanks for a great forum!

    welcome abord. sounds like a great deal

    and i think you only missed having front disc brakes by one year too

    since you got a 6 banger under the hood you might want to get on www.fordsix.com/forum too. not many mavercks but theres a ton of great inline 6 info

    good luck with your project

    :Welcome: to the board. The manual front disc brakes were an option in 74.
    Check in our "For Sale" section & Ebay. They come up once in awhile...
