    Got the rest of the stuff yesterday. Didnt get home till after dark. I have to go back this morning and get the Sprint. A little disappointing note is that there was only 2 grabber hoods. The second one is pretty rusty on the back side. Also one of the NOS door skins turned out not to be a Maverick at all. But I did find another spoiler set that I almost missed tucked in top of the garage. I'll put some pictures up latter on today.

    Here are some pictures of most of the stuff. Put your bibs on!! :D

    2 grabber hoods, 1 slightly rusty on the back side, 1 real rusty on the back side. Not too bad lip moldings although none of them are ding free.
    [​IMG]

    2 good dash pads, Comet GT scoop in rough shape, all 3 bumpers have the Ford sticker on the back but are not show quality due to the chrome. Salty air is not kind to chrome. Ok Valance, Nos Tail light panel and quarters.
    [​IMG]

    A set of Quarter skins, the kind AutoKrafters sells, Behind them 2 NOS Chromed Grills, Also nos door skin and quarter panels
    [​IMG]

    Assorted grills, All are good. I threw away all the broken ones.
    [​IMG]

    And then the pile of good stuff which I've already listed.

    Still waiting for my Buddy to show up. He has the doors, fenders and bucket seats in his truck. There is also a trunk lid with an aftermarket spoiler that you just aint going to believe.

    Well, I just looked the Sprint over pretty good and.......there's no easy way to say it......it's terminal. :cry: Floors, trunk floor, fender aprons, door posts, torque boxes, core support, all have rust holes. Oh well, cant save them all.

    Hmmmm ... I think I may remember that ... after I had moved to Georgia in 1995 I went to Spring Carlisle in 1996. I bought a single NOS center from some guy at the show. He told me new another vendor who had more for sale but the vendor had already left and I got his phone number ..... pretty crazy ...
