1974 Ford Maverick 55K Mile Barn Find

Description for Ford Other 1974

Fresh from the barn, 974 Ford Maverick. 55,XXX Miles,250 1V straight six, utomatic.Owned by father, hen son. At first glance the car appears a little rough, ut 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, ear lower quarter, river side lower front fender. Drivers door is a little beat up on the edge, ore then likely from opening and closing it in a tight spaced garage. The trunk, loors, ubframe, hock towers, adiator support, attery box and firewall are all SOLID as a rock, o cancer or rot. Both doors close nicely. Paint is scratched and shows wear. Mechanically speaking, removed the gas tank, lushed the 22 year old varnish out of it, nstalled a new sending unit, hrew 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, nd transmission feels reactive, tookit for a short ride, nd other then 4 flat spotted bias ply's and sticking drum brakes it seems to drive straight. I have a clean PA title, owever 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, ontact me before bidding.
