What a nice little trip down memory lane. Very sweet little car. I bought a 1976 Maverick brand new off. The lot paid about $3500 for it. Ford should have never taken the Maverick name and put on a ugly little truck. You talk about sacrilegious. Enjoy that little car. They were fun to drive.
I said the same thing when I first saw their new ugly trucks They should have brought the original Maverick back.. they would have sold huge.. I always liked the body style if these
Mann that engine that sounded so goood 😮 Your evil laugh after your buddy says Man that is a quiet motor! Has me deing lol Cha Ching is all your heard What a cool FN Car
I just picked up one yesterday in the same color and condition for $5600 with some 500+ cubic inch motor that the guy had forgotten the specs on but had the dyno sheets proving that it makes 650hp with a shitty knock of elderbrock carb and 790hp with a demon carb the guy tried making me trailer it home when I literally lived an mile away so I told him it’s on your trailer already to come drop it off and he said no so I said no problem I don’t have a trailer and no cop is going to catch me within the second my foot hits the pedal so unstrap her and I’ll show you how I do things I had the guy asking me how I made it do a wheelie 10 minutes later lol and I said it’s called my balls are obviously dropped and yours are still in your mom 😂
I always thought the Mavericks were very unappealing, too. The non-huge body rub trim strip cars look better to me now. You haven't lived until you have gone from SC to DC and back for the holidays in a college friends I-6 Maverick that consumed a quart of oil every 75 miles. Stop, check and add oil. Stop, get gas, check and add oil, repeat...
Maverick and comet, and the 67-73 mustang and the 94-98 mustang sn95 cars and my favorite version of them is probably the 71-73 mustang and the 79-86 mercury Capri cars
Now that was a trip down memory lane..... I purchased the same car back when it was new , it was built as the simple machine... And the cost was 1995 !
Really love this video. Love the Maverick, one of the best designs to come out of the Ford factory. Jay, nice job on the compounding. More of the Maverick.
I always really liked this body style, especially before they got the big 5mph bumpers. Great color and yeah i'd keep those wheels. Fantastic little driver quality classic.
Winner winner chicken dinner boys. I had several 70...74. Mavericks. Mostly straight six auto. But I also had one with 3 on the tree and my favorite was a 72 Grabber Maverick. 5 hole wheels and a 302..4 speed. I planned on keeping that one but it got stolen in 1985. This definitely brought back some good memories.
This reminds me of my 71, bought it back in 02 for $250 tried restoring it but never had the time and it needed more then i had $$$ to spend for it.. Same engine too, yours sounds better then mine did, mine was a bear to get started it would rarely if ever fire right up on a cold start I always had to fight with it, started fine once it was warmed up. Mine had the 3 on the tree which had a bad bushing because it wouldn't find 3rd gear sometimes it would go back to 1st which isn't fun at 40 mph..
Great find, great buy. You both did a stellar job piecing her back together Jay, kudos. Use to see a lot of these on the road back in the 70's. Had a classmate that drove an orange "Grabber" with a 302. When these were introduced, Ford had a television advertising campaign touting $1995. MSRP. Peace.
I can tell how excited you guys were to start workin on this thing. Makes me really happy. I used to work on cars with my dad too, unfortunately he isn't here anymore, but it sure is fun watching you two work on them!
Hello, Jay! You said the car had 195/70/14 tires on it. You should consider 195/75/14 as replacement. The taller tire will give you a much smoother ride, and better braking with the manual brakes.
Nice find, Several years ago right before I retired from the Army I got sent to Fort Irwin in Barstow California. I had just gotten divorced and I decided to leave my newer truck at home and I would find something out there, When I got there I went the "Lemon Lot", if your old school military you know what that is. I found a Green on Green 75 Maverick that belonged to a lower enlisted who was getting ready to leave and go overseas, So I bought it and drove it back to the housing area and my roommate and I started off almost immediately on it cleaning it up, he had a cousin who lived in Bulhead City Az and had a 83 Mustang that he bought for the engine so we went down there and snagged the Front Seats and Center Console and then dyed the front and back seats and console Black, plastic sheeted up the garage then we repainted in the garage, shhhh don't tell the Army. We had so much fun wrenching on that thing and road tripping in that car, We'd jump in that thing on Friday night and drive over to Vegas or up to Bakersfield or down to L.A. and San Diego.
I got my drivers license in a 1970 Maverick. The gas pedal wasn't connected to the throttle rod. The DMV instructor wasn't going to let me take the test. So I found a pencil and threaded the pencil through the mounting hole in the pedal and rod. I think he must've been impressed with my ingenuity and determination. Cause I did the K turn backwards,and he still approved my DL.
My first car was a 1970 Ford Maverick the same color as that one. Boy that brings back so many memories. I would Love to find another one as nice as that one .
Awesome find & revival! My dad was a Ford fanatic & had a 1970 Grabber Maverick he raced at Motion Raceway back in the day. Good luck with the channel, got my sub!
I remember driving my friend's Maverick of that era. We felt like the po folk. Bias ply tires. I don't think they put any sound deadening in 'em to save weight. So the road noise on those tires was incredible. And that big ass steering wheel with the crazy ratio meant you were spinning it constantly whether you were driving straight or turning LOL. Vinyl was thick and hard as a rock. But that car is COOL to me now decades later.
Absolutely worth every penny and amount of time that you sunk into it it's a keeper it's an a to b car. Acoustics, there's something about a Maverick on the inside every one I've ever sat in the acoustics were phenomenal.
That's a good looking old car. I took my driver's test for my first license in a Maverick just like that one only it was yellow😊 oh and it had a 302 V8..
In the early 80s a good friend of mine had almost this exact same car. His was sky blue with black interior and the 6-cylinder engine, and I think his was a 1970. It was a good, reliable car.
OMG. My first car was a 1971 Maverick. It was light blue, with a yelliw hood, and no grille. This car is so similar that it immediately took me back 42 years. I would love to have another one.
When I was growing up, my neighbor had a Maverick with the 302. It was loud, fast and I always thought it was kind of cool because it was so different. He was one hell of a guy - Vietnam and submarine veteran, and one of the kindest, gentlest, best men I’ve ever known. RIP John.
I just now found your channel, glad i did. Being a fan of cars in general, and the restorations of "barn finds" I actually enjoy the road trip videos more. Automobiles and road trips just go hand in hand.
I had a 71 with a 390 4 barrel carb 4 speed and that little thing would fly and don't pay attention to the people on the internet I think yall did a great job!!!
I have a 71 maverick I built with a 408 w stroker , Tremec TKX 600 close ratio 5 speed and 3.73 geared 8.8 LS rear diff. Fun doesn't begin to describe the car. Love the little mavericks. They can be built to handle amazingly well too. Nice acquisition
had a 72 maverick. it was orange with a black stripe. it had a 300-six with a three on the tree. drove from Spokane to Olympia and still had a 1/4 gas left. paid 75 bucks for the car i had to sell it later for my nephews' first car and I was going overseas for a job. It was a nice car with lots of power.
Thank you so much for doing this video. Early 70s maverick is my favorite classic car and i just love the body style. Thats also a beautiful color, looks like gulf stream aqua or a metallic teal. Great job on the resto!!!!
That engine runs smooth!! That interior is beautiful. Keep dash protected in the sun...looks like it had no cracks....would be tough to find another one. Looks like it might have a "Grabber" hood....I'm surprised it didn't have front disc brakes...even for a 71... If you want to go back to stock rims....any 6 cyl Mustang will be 4 lug. Can't wait for first drive!!
I seen a 72 mercury comet it was painted Ford twilight blue with the parts store silver barb wire pinstripe tape, and it had the 2000's ish bullit 5 spoke aluminum mag wheels i believe they are a 17 anyways it looked sweet.. and i never would have considered those wheels for one of those cars if it was me..
Nicely done. Back in the day, I viewed the Maverick as a budget-friendly car, but then a buddy’s dad got a Comet GT with the 302 and a manual tranny. What a fun car.
What a treat. I always enjoy your content. My Grandmother bought the first Maverick Grabber in the Chambersburg area right off the show room floor. Bright yellow. Black interior. Radio, heater, whitewalls, 200 in six. Unboosted steering. It turned heads. $2600 out the door. Thanks for this. What a great find.
I bought a 1973 Maverick with 302 V-8 and three speed manual on the column. It was solid blue and was very much fun to drive after I put glass pack mufflers on it. It sounded awesome. A hail storm came thru and chipped the paint. Nationwide Insurance paid for a repaint and I had it painted in blue over white like the Grabber. I got a lot of compliments on that car.
Great buy! I just loved Mavericks. That one's got good bones and is a great car to learn and play with. Run the 6 for a while and if ya feel like it drop a small block 8 in it. Have fun.
Man, I want one of these things BAD! And yes, Maverick shock towers can have all the same weaknesses as Mustang shock towers. In fact, many of the front suspension and steering components are shared with 67-70 Mustang and you can do all the same mods/upgrades to them you can with a Mustang. It's just narrower.
Ford Mavericks were everywhere when they came into the market in 1970. They were priced under $2,000, with a 3 speed stick and an inline 6 cylinder engine. No glove box, but it had carpeting and a cigarette lighter.
I watched somebody take a can of paint and sprayed it just to make it look like it's been gone over he wanted it to look nice. I think Henry would say you were expecting something else,in another word it runs really good I love them straight six.

I agree 👍💯
I had a white one with a blue racing strips on the hood. Back in the 80s 🤘
Yep. I had a red 70 6 cyl. Maverick. It was a pretty nice ride. Good job on this blue one. I like it! 😎👍
I said the same thing when I first saw their new ugly trucks
They should have brought the original Maverick back.. they would have sold huge.. I always liked the body style if these
@@warthogA10cars don’t sell unfortunately 🤷🏼♂️
Those grabbers were wicked fast in 1972
Love the 2 door maverick
Sweet, very underrated cars.
Mann that engine that sounded so goood 😮
Your evil laugh after your buddy says Man that is a quiet motor! Has me deing lol Cha Ching is all your heard
What a cool FN Car
She is a peach!!
Very cool ,
beautiful turquoise colour
I just picked up one yesterday in the same color and condition for $5600 with some 500+ cubic inch motor that the guy had forgotten the specs on but had the dyno sheets proving that it makes 650hp with a shitty knock of elderbrock carb and 790hp with a demon carb the guy tried making me trailer it home when I literally lived an mile away so I told him it’s on your trailer already to come drop it off and he said no so I said no problem I don’t have a trailer and no cop is going to catch me within the second my foot hits the pedal so unstrap her and I’ll show you how I do things I had the guy asking me how I made it do a wheelie 10 minutes later lol and I said it’s called my balls are obviously dropped and yours are still in your mom 😂
I really didn't care for Mavericks back in the day but now older and seeing this one I've changed my mind. Good job.
Same
I always thought the Mavericks were very unappealing, too. The non-huge body rub trim strip cars look better to me now. You haven't lived until you have gone from SC to DC and back for the holidays in a college friends I-6 Maverick that consumed a quart of oil every 75 miles. Stop, check and add oil. Stop, get gas, check and add oil, repeat...
@@stevevarholy2011 lol, I had an old VW Bug back then and my Dad just threw a case of oil into the trunk for me so I wouldn't bother him. Good times.
Maverick and comet, and the 67-73 mustang and the 94-98 mustang sn95 cars and my favorite version of them is probably the 71-73 mustang and the 79-86 mercury Capri cars
Ditto...looks better than I remember.
I always liked the Maverick, good-looking car. I'd daily drive that
Now that was a trip down memory lane..... I purchased the same car back when it was new , it was built as the simple machine... And the cost was 1995 !
Sharp maverick I like that model year 71 my favorite.
Really love this video. Love the Maverick, one of the best designs to come out of the Ford factory. Jay, nice job on the compounding. More of the Maverick.
I always really liked this body style, especially before they got the big 5mph bumpers. Great color and yeah i'd keep those wheels. Fantastic little driver quality classic.
Swwweeeet car! Time to drop a 302 in it!!
What a beautiful car Jay. Great transformation done by you and your dad.
The 1971 was my first car back in 1979. Never had any issues with it.
That engine is so smooth running and sounding. Not a rattle that I heard. That is one sweet little rig.
Winner winner chicken dinner boys. I had several 70...74. Mavericks. Mostly straight six auto. But I also had one with 3 on the tree and my favorite was a 72 Grabber Maverick. 5 hole wheels and a 302..4 speed. I planned on keeping that one but it got stolen in 1985.

Great episode! I have always liked the Ford Maverick!
Hey Bro, don’t let all the internet “ experts “ get to you. All an “expert” is, is a “Has been, under pressure “!!!😉 Totally LOVE the car!!!!
What a sweet old girl I often wonder why these gems get parked
After it was all cleaned up, it looks amazing! Love the color and that '70s body style!
This reminds me of my 71, bought it back in 02 for $250 tried restoring it but never had the time and it needed more then i had $$$ to spend for it..

Jay, the most enjoyable video I ever watched on your channel, you and your Dad working together is priceless . !! Great job
I forgot, the motor sounds so quiet !!!!
Yo aprendí a conducir en un Maverick 4 puertas de 1973. Gran coche.
I will definitely watch move videos if this continues.!!
I can tell how excited you guys were to start workin on this thing.
Makes me really happy. I used to work on cars with my dad too, unfortunately he isn't here anymore, but it sure is fun watching you two work on them!
Now it’s ready for a coast to coast road trip
Hello, Jay! You said the car had 195/70/14 tires on it. You should consider 195/75/14 as replacement. The taller tire will give you a much smoother ride, and better braking with the manual brakes.
I had a new 1972 Maverick Grabber with the 302 V8. Wow what a quick car. Loved it. Grabber Blue with the graphics and fake hood scoops.

So prettyyyy! I want to drive it oneday!
I had a 71 Grabber with a 200 6 cyl and a 3 on the floor, I loved that car
I had a ‘75 Merc Comet, with a 3 on the floor and 200 ci inline 6, great little car,
OMG. My first car was a 1971 Maverick. It was light blue, with a yelliw hood, and no grille. This car is so similar that it immediately took me back 42 years. I would love to have another one.
Awesome car, my first car was a 74 Comet with the 200 and factory a/c. Loved the bench seat for dates. I’d love to get one like this.
When I was growing up, my neighbor had a Maverick with the 302. It was loud, fast and I always thought it was kind of cool because it was so different. He was one hell of a guy - Vietnam and submarine veteran, and one of the kindest, gentlest, best men I’ve ever known. RIP John.
Nice catch man. Those Mavericks were really. My mom had a chocolate brown metallic 74 Maverick with the 302 in it. 😊
I just now found your channel, glad i did. Being a fan of cars in general, and the restorations of "barn finds" I actually enjoy the road trip videos more. Automobiles and road trips just go hand in hand.
Wow, nice, I bought a 73 Comet a while back, not that nice and it's a 4 door but I still love it.
I had a 71 with a 390 4 barrel carb 4 speed and that little thing would fly and don't pay attention to the people on the internet I think yall did a great job!!!
A 390 in a Maverick? Wow! I bet it hauled azz! 😎👍
Morning Jay! Yall had to dig for that prize! Dirty dodge sounds good!
Hi jay very nice ford Mavericks it is beautiful
Growing up in gaffney I had a comet that looked similar to a maverick. It provided a great get away vehicle when we would go cow tipping
I have a 71 maverick I built with a 408 w stroker , Tremec TKX 600 close ratio 5 speed and 3.73 geared 8.8 LS rear diff. Fun doesn't begin to describe the car. Love the little mavericks. They can be built to handle amazingly well too. Nice acquisition
Hey Jay, nice revival on a cool car. THUNDERHEAD289 has a Ford Maverick. In 4 days that’s pretty cool. Keep up the great work you and your Dad do.
had a 72 maverick. it was orange with a black stripe. it had a 300-six with a three on the tree. drove from Spokane to Olympia and still had a 1/4 gas left. paid 75 bucks for the car i had to sell it later for my nephews' first car and I was going overseas for a job. It was a nice car with lots of power.
Jay, when she all put back together, she's a keeper
Get a spoiler and factory good scoop. Hood make it look like a grabber
I am not a big fan of mavericks but between this one and the crispy comet I’m learning to love these little beasts.❤
Thank you so much for doing this video. Early 70s maverick is my favorite classic car and i just love the body style. Thats also a beautiful color, looks like gulf stream aqua or a metallic teal. Great job on the resto!!!!
Absolutely gorgeous car. You got a real score there, and nothing looks better than cars from the 50's, 60's, and 70's. Well done.
These were solid basic transportation cars back in the day. Pretty much what we need nowadays going forward in this crushing inflation times
Best transportation cars now would be maybe 10 year old Honda Civic or Toyota Camry, They will just run and run.
@@BakedRBeans true. Sadly so as Detroit is lacking in quality control
nice rescue! looks sharp. those 2-door Mavs had some nice lines to them before they started suffering from ugly bumper disease.
Car cleaned up nice....they sure don't make 'em like they used to!
Body looks nice and solid. Nice V-8 convertion or leave it as isand make a daily driver out of it. I like the 70 to 73 mavricks.
That engine runs smooth!! That interior is beautiful. Keep dash protected in the sun...looks like it had no cracks....would be tough to find another one. Looks like it might have a "Grabber" hood....I'm surprised it didn't have front disc brakes...even for a 71... If you want to go back to stock rims....any 6 cyl Mustang will be 4 lug.

65-66 Ford truck also got the 200ci L6 in them Jay.
love maverik's awesome bodystyle
You got a deal. Brings back memories.
I love the car what a sharp looking car I'd love to have one a drive one I've always liked ford mavericks they are awesome cars
Thats a great result in very little time. Yall got a little gem there.
Jay, Back when you could get a new car for just over $2000.00. Also built better than the ones we get today. Thanks for video.
I would not call this a total rebuild but a total revival, but being said I love the video and the car
Great Find Guy, those Maverick are hard to find today ! They made Great Race Cars, guess that's why ! 😁✌
needs some paint, but damn what a score. body and everything is in great shape.
that's a really nice ride, and I love the wheels, wow that was a pretty easy one to bring back to life!
Ive been watching your videos from the beginning and i still get excited when you upload 😀
I always like seeing you working with your dad, I’m sure he remembers when these cars were everywhere.
Been over 40 years since I last saw my ‘71 Maverick, but instantly recognized the York compressor, washer bottle, air cleaner, and radiator
Nicely done. Back in the day, I viewed the Maverick as a budget-friendly car, but then a buddy’s dad got a Comet GT with the 302 and a manual tranny. What a fun car.
What a treat. I always enjoy your content. My Grandmother bought the first Maverick Grabber in the Chambersburg area right off the show room floor. Bright yellow. Black interior. Radio, heater, whitewalls, 200 in six. Unboosted steering.
It turned heads.
$2600 out the door.
Thanks for this. What a great find.
I noticed your dad is doing really really good with that fuel pump replacement" he had done a few years ago!😂❤
Beautiful car 🚙
I bought a 1973 Maverick with 302 V-8 and three speed manual on the column. It was solid blue and was very much fun to drive after I put glass pack mufflers on it. It sounded awesome. A hail storm came thru and chipped the paint. Nationwide Insurance paid for a repaint and I had it painted in blue over white like the Grabber. I got a lot of compliments on that car.
Great video. Takes me back to my very first car which was a 1971 green Maverick with a 250 instead of the 200. I wish I had never got rid of it.
Just came across your channel. Diggin the maverick
I had a couple grabbers,, even had the comet mercury version with the scooped hood! Cool cars
Owned a '71 2door, 200 6, auto. Nice car, yours reminds me of mine. Also owned a '74 maverick v8 auto 2 door. Liked both cars.
Wow what a excellent find of a classic Ford 🤩 The engine sounds so smooth and quiet. Awesome cool video Jay 😃👍
I had a 73 Mercury Comet with a 302. I had so much fun with that car.
Dirty Duck would be a great name or plate for this car.. 😁👍
Great buy! I just loved Mavericks. That one's got good bones and is a great car to learn and play with. Run the 6 for a while and if ya feel like it drop a small block 8 in it. Have fun.
I love this car!

SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Awesome I love a Maverick!!!!!
Love the sound of the Dodge Magnum V8 why I can't get rid of my '97 Ram 1500 with a 360 V8, because it sounds so good. Also like those cars too.
My magnum 318 sounds good as well but does have the power or torque yours and Jay's 360 has lol
What an awesome video I had a 70 maverick
This is a ford 200 6 cylinder, also Ford had the 300 CI, 6 cylinder.
Dodge had the 225 slant 6 and
AMC had the famous 258 straight 6
Ford Mavericks were everywhere when they came into the market in 1970. They were priced under $2,000, with a 3 speed stick and an inline 6 cylinder engine. No glove box, but it had carpeting and a cigarette lighter.
