Maplemotors ....Another affordable gem. Thank you for your hard work and fair priced opportunities!!
Thank you
Looks amazing
A bunch of years ago there was a Maverick Grabber 4-speed for sale...dad opened the hood then shut it..he said you won't be getting this one...I opened the hood and found a 429 under the hood!
Dad protected you from a monster you might not have been ready for 😂😂😂
@@TerryByrdJr You are probably right
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I remember when they were everywhere...miss those days
I'm an old man, I've seen thousands of Ford mavericks I've never seen one this nice. Thanks for sharing.
I havent seen a Maverick in years!! Thats gorgeous!
This is the best deal I’ve seen yet
I didn't think much of these, when they were new. I know now that the Maverick was one of Ford's better ideas.
After bucking hay all day, back in the late 70's, Terry, in his Maverick with a 302 took off and we were following him in a Plymouth Roadrunner with a 383. He took off and left us in the dust. At 120mph we still couldn't catch him. It wasn't until that long legged Roadrunner was hitting 130mph that we started gaining on him.
The most HONEST car review on RUclips. Nice example of a '74 with small bumper restomod. The flaws are not uncommon, and the car is unique being a 3-on-tree V-8 of later vintage. Not bad!
I grew up with Mavericks and know them very well. Where this might appear to be a nice example with good paint/interior, after looking at the pictures on the Maple Motors website, there’s a bunch of things that give me pause - rust through on the underside, original paint showing from behind the rear bumper, front fenders were poorly cut to fit the new bumper, inside trunk not painted, no drivers mirror. It’s by no means mint, I would call it good, or maybe just below.
Its a $3500 car. Period.
By Ohio standards, that car is REALLY clean.
@@donreinke5863 they were going for $3000 brand new in 1973,that's what my dad paid for.The Lincoln continental goes for around $6000 and the Pantera's goes for 8 grand.
Not only that, it is not a ‘74, in fact it is not even a ‘73.

I have always loved the body lines on the Maverick
Our first family car in 1984 given to my dad as starting gift…Underestimated at the time. Now I wish I could have it and restore it.
I'm a Bowtie guy, but I always loved these pocket rockets. Had a friend who had a blue one with a 302 and 4 spd in HS in the 70's. It was a beastly beauty.
I'm betting some of your younger viewers are seeing a three on the tree for the first time.
That’s a really nice car for the money, had a 72 w/302 in High school they are great little cars.
Nick you absolutely have it nailed on the camera POV driving perspective. Great job.
Thank you
I love the 3 on the tree manual transmissions! That was fairly common with the Maverick and one of the last cars that did it
I had a 71 maverick grabber back in the 80's, the rust ate it alive.Another great car built with cheap steel.
Damn.. absolutely a buy right now car, very rare and a shift on the column. So so so many hop ups you can do, that 302 under the hood sounds pretty healthy, wow what a fun little ride. 👍👍😎
Needs a coyote motor and a 5 speed .
This was my very first car when I was a teenager McGavock High School Nashville Tennessee accept my was a 3-speed on the floor not on the tree great vehicle congratulations to whoever owns this vehicle much respect
One of my favorite cars was a 1975 Maverick Grabber.
I am a Chevrolet fan and a Chevelle man but will be the first to say I love those old Mavericks. Best looking car ford ever made, great video Nick and good looking Maverick!!!
The Cougar was a little bit nicer. Still Maverick was underapreciated
Well thats is definitely an arguable opinion....plenty of people, including me would disagree with the Maverick being the best car ford ever made...as a matter of fact, that sounds quite ridiculous! However, this particular Maverick was done right..and I love the 3 on the tree..great car!
Mavericks didn't get much respect back in the day (except of you were Glidden or Rouch) but what a sweet little car this is! Gotta love the three on the tree too. Easy to convert to a floor shift too if you so desire. This is a great car for someone to get into a classic without spending a lot of money, It won't last long on your lot at that price.
I haven't had a three on the tree since my 65 Fairlane back in 72. Had it in a 56 Ford in 69.
Had a 72 maverick with three on the tree. Had a 170 six banger. Fun car. Nice 👌
170 was a great motor. I had a 1970 maverick with the 170ci great on gas
That won't be there long. I haven't scene 1 since high school. Beautiful!!
That little Maverick is a gem !! Somebody definitely scored 😎
I had a '70 Grabber 3 on the tree! this video really brings back memories!
I love your channel sure brings back memories!!! Grew up in Southern California in the 70s!!!😎
We had one in the mid seventies as a daily driver. I’ve loved them ever since.
That is a beautiful car and the only ford i would own.
This is a gem
Mavericks were awesome!
My brother had a Maverick and put a 351 Cleveland in it! With wheelly wheels on the rear he ran 9.80s in the quarter mile! It was a Bad Street Car! It’s odd seeing the three on the tree! I like this car! There’s a tremendous amount of rust underneath this car! Wonder if it was a flood car?
One of the most underrated and underrepresented body styles. That was a pony car if you ask me. The Grabber with a 4spd... Full muscle car.
Maverick never had 4 speed from factory. The car pictured unless they changed all the fenders and stuff is a 70 or 71. 73 they went to the big bumpers in front and 74 had the big ones in back. Grabber package had "hood scoops". But still a nice looking car. I put a 10 bolt top loader in mine with the 302. Went pretty good, didnt stop worth a dang on drum brakes.
this is a '74 with small bumper mod. The glove box is the give-away.
very, very nice. The model that almost put an end to Mustangs. Great color somebody chose and that engine sounds plenty healthy.
Thank you
Nice!! Always was a nice looking car!! 302 under the hood, now that's a quick machine!! Maverick Grabber was nice also!!
my cousin still has his dads original 67 Cougar and his moms original 71 Maverick, both are V8s.
I remember when the Mavericks were new in 70 and 71 and they were $2,000
Had a friend with a 71 with a 302 with a C4. It was a sleeper and very tight and well built.
My dad had the same car, though it was the Mercury Comet; 74, 302, auto, and it was awesome. It sort of became mine in around 87 but was gone in 88 as the motor mounts were done. Great car!
I know you love what you do for a living..
I feel like I missed out on automotive history without driving a 3 on the tree 🌲... guess I will have to settle for my excursion 7.3 .. I will show myself out good video nick 🇺🇸
You missed nothing .
With a Hurst shifter that's one fun little car...
Had to drive one for awhile that was hit by a train...could park it around a pole. Lol
Such an underrated little car.. my buddy lives in hendersonville.. u can drop it off there for me lol
Yay Chrome bumpers. Just needs a floor shifter.
I used to own a bright red '74 Maverick Grabber... Had a 302 and 3 speed on the floor.
I paid $1500 for it about 1985 or so.
Wish I still had it.
I Remember My Neighbor back in the Day, Mid 70's Dropping a 351 Cleveland with a 4 Speed in one, He Named it "Hole Shot", DAMN That Ting was Fast!
You leave me breathless, Maverick!
Sold before I could get to it. I ended up getting another one, but this this is amazing
My first car bought it from my uncle for 900 bucks. Great car slick lines, I miss that car
This is a rare car for sure.
That 1974 Ford Maverick almost looks like a small 1967 Chevy Camaro.
You don't see standard transmissions in cars much anymore, especially with the shifter on the column.
On the outside fantastic. Had one with a 390 4 speed. Interior Had a lot of plastic
So far, I've seen your videos on all the-little-cars- that- could from the Big 3. Now I'm waiting for the AMC Hornet.
It seems like a pretty nice car, it looks good with the American racing wheels with that paint. and it sounds good, but I would have to swap out that three on the tree for a floor shifter. I have driven quite a few cars with column shifters. and it gets old after a while. Mavericks make really good drag cars because they transfer the weight to the rear really good.
My sister had a 71/72 blue maverick she drove thru nursing school then traded for a 73 brown comet. They were good cars no problems
1974 came out with extended front and rear bumpers for safety. I know this because my Aunt had one.
I always did like the Ford Maverick.. this one is really nice.
That car will sell fast
Fun! 1st car I sold was a 72' Maverick!
That's a good looking Maverick there is no doubt I send everybody that I can think of to Maple motors because they keep telling me they're looking for one particular car I said if it's old and they don't have it more than likely they can find it y'all keep up the good work I appreciate everything you do God bless your heart
Thank you very much
I would have bought that beauty.
OMG ! Nick ! You know now ya gotta get us one of the 72 Vegas's with an old school 327 and Holley 650 . thanx for the best vids on YT .
i want this maverick,i use to have a 73 250 straight 6 was a fun car i miss it
Dang that's the most handsome Mav I've ever seen ..beautiful paint.
Thank you
You've obviously never seen mine.
Nice car, my friend here in New Zealand has a 1970 Ford Maverick. A very rare car here.
love this one you dont see these like you use to looks clean
Those were cool cars !!!
That dash don't look too busy!😆
Clean Nick!👍Clean!
Looks like a mako paint job. The whole underside is rust, its solid but really needs to go on a rotissorie, I am sure some one will buy it as is but no rear view mirror on the drivers door is a no no.
The maverick is now a focus with a bed
3 on the tree Maverick at Maple Motors!
3 on the tree like my falcon!
A nice driver at an affordable price. Not a bad little Maverick.
Those things were fun little cars!
Wow, great deal. Maverick's I've seen are going for way more than that.
a very nice ride, I do like the 3 on the tree, she not perfect but in great shape for its age, nicely priced and dont see it lasting long.
We have Mavericks in Brazil in early 70's, but here there isn't the bull horns because for Brazilians it means a husband which was betrayed by his wife. Cheers from Brazil
I’m from Brazil, and back on the 80’s my father has one gold GT... I want this thing!!!
Odd you should say that. I had a buddy who's old lady ran off with his best friend in his Maverick
Making a Chevy guy want a Maverick. That 3 on the teee is what makes it cooler than normal.
I've never driven a three on the tree, looks easy enough though.
I learned to drive on a three on the tree.
That car is in a Portland tn cruise in video with no bumpers
Nice,I wonder if the guys from Oakland saw this,they love Mavericks out that way.
We here 💯
That would be a perfect starter classic car. I'm going to run some numbers hopefully I'll be giving you guys a call.
Nick, nice Mav dude! Love the 3 on the tree!
Strange,every 1974 Maverick I’ve ever seen had big bumpers on it. This looks like a ‘73 and earlier to me
That is awesome. Love it wish i could buy it.
You and the whole rest of us watching this vid
Nice! Needs a good undercoating job, but otherwise, it's a sweetie. For the price, won't last long because someone is going to grab it quick.
Pretty sharp car nice to see. Hey Nick you can check the accuracy of the speedo by using your GPS. Guestamating works too!
My grandma had a Maverick that was in the early 80s I can't remember the last time I've actually seen one since then
That's literally the car I drove in Driver's Ed in 1974 right before I got my driver's license.
Rare maverick. Thanks. Nick
Woooow you dont see these anymore !!!! and a column shift Wow!
I grew up with the Maverick.I learned how to drive on my parents Maverick.I pass my DMV driving test on our Maverick.I don't think that's a 74 year model because it doesn't have a 5 mile per hour crash bumper.The 5 mile/hour crash bumper was mandated in 1974.
My dad was a Ford guy, but then he bought a Maverick. We would have to drive with four gallons of water in the trunk, in anticipation of the radiator steaming over. Ford couldn’t or wouldn’t fix the problem. After that, he had GM or Dodge.
347 stroked + 6 speed and YEE HAA
The best part about that car is that someone took those big ugly box bumpers off and put the smaller ones from earlier years on it. I had one of those with a 351W and a 4 speed. It would pull the front wheels off the ground through 2 gears. Yep, a lot of courthouse time with that one! Light as a feather. Think early Chevy II weight.
hehehehehehe NO IT DIDNT
Love the car and that 3 on the tree i can really slam gears I'd almost buy it but right now I'm healing from a broken back so times are a little tight right know.
