AWESOME 1972 Ford Maverick 289 V8 Hot Rod Rat Rod Cobra Muscle Car
1972 Ford Other Description
Up for sale is a nice '72 Ford Maverick! She gets a lot of attention! Originally a Colorado car, even has the original dealer sticker on the rear valance. It's been my daily driver project for almost 4 years now. Now its time for someone to finish her. She was originally a 6 cylinder grandma owned car, then the guy I bought her from installed a 302 v8 in her. After I bought her I installed a mild built 289. She runs great! Drives good. She still has drum brakes, I never got around to installing disc brakes. Solid car except the lower rear quarters has little rust. Has some dings and little dents. But overall not bad for a 40+ year old car with the original paint. Its a NON-Grabber with a real grabber hood, I was in the middle of trying to turn her into a Grabber clone. Interior is decent for its age. The front seats are from a late 80's / early 90's Mazda. If you keep those they need reupholstered to match the car. The original back seat needs reupholstered and could use new carpet. Has a Lokar 8" floor shifter hooked to a TCI Sizzler automatic transmission. Has a cool old school 8,000rpm dash tach, which works good. Dash pad is cracked. I installed white face gauges. Has a Grant wood steering wheel to give it an old school look. Has aluminum door panels, but also have the original ones. Has vintage slotted mags. Rear tires are good. Front tires are okay. Has a Champion aluminum 3 row radiator with a 3000cfm electric fan.
