70 Maverick came home

Mom had a 74 Maverick 4 door, she called it "**** brindle brown", but it was actually a very reliable car, just ugly. Had the 250 cube six and automatic, only options were power steering and rear defogger. I got my drivers license in that car, mom owned a driving instruction school and used it for training, had dual controls in it.
Buddy in high school had a 71 Maverick 2 door that his dad gave him when he got his driver's license. We pulled the 200 cube six banger and he picked up a pretty hot 302 and dropped it in. A few months after it was on the road he slammed it into a tree on a rainy Sunday afternoon. He and his girlfriend were lucky to walk away after.
