Clear

Fresh from the barn, 1974 Ford Maverick. 55,XXX Miles,250 1V straight six, automatic. Owned by father, then son. At first glance the car appears a little rough, but I can assure you its solid in all the right places. Car has previously been laid up for the past 22 years. Car has rust in some of the usual spots; passenger front fender extension, rear lower quarter, driver side lower front fender. Drivers door is a little beat up on the edge, more then likely from opening and closing it in a tight spaced garage. The trunk, floors, subframe, shock towers, radiator support, battery box and firewall are all SOLID as a rock, no cancer or rot. Both doors close nicely. Paint is scratched and shows wear. Mechanically speaking, I removed the gas tank, flushed the 22 year old varnish out of it, installed a new sending unit, threw in a battery and fired her up. Its runs decent and sounds healthy. Slight exhaust leak. I would still recommend rebuilding the carburetor & replacing all the usual things that go bad from sitting this long. The car goes into all gears, and transmission feels reactive, I took it for a short ride, and other then 4 flat spotted bias ply's and sticking drum brakes it seems to drive straight. I have a clean PA title, however it is not in my name. The previous owner is dead and gone. It will be the buyers responsibility to find a way to get it transferred. Sold As-Is Where-Is. Buyer responsible for contacting me within auctions end about payment. If you have less then 10 Feedback, contact me before bidding.
