I am going to try and write a feature without mentioning the coronavirus…arggg…I already broke that promise by even mentioning the thing. Okay, rewind…let’s try again. The Ford Maverick was sold starting in 1970 as a replacement for the oldschool Falcon and it sold in decent numbers through 1977 when it was replaced with Ford […]
This next car comes as a tip from JB1025 who writes: Younger Sister car to the Comet on 3/2/20; The other Phony Pony car from the Blue Oval.. Yes, this is indeed the other white meat from Ford…but it looks oddly appealing for the price. Find this 1976 Ford Maverick V8 offered for $6,300 in Portland, […]
The Ford Maverick is a cool ride if you don’t mind some early 70s style and a simple mechanical setup, but anybody will tell you is that the best way to drive an early 70s Ford is with a Mercury badge on the hood. Find this 1971 Mercury Comet GT offered for $8775 in Los Angeles, […]
We’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: there is no money better spent on any car than the previous owner’s money. It is the equivalent of drafting when racing — why burn your own fuel and generate your own speed when you can let the other guy do the dirty work for you. […]

Take a look at this 1974 Ford Maverick here on eBay bidding for $3,150 with auction ending on Sunday.
I’m really conflicted about this car. It is a survivor, but its been grounded to the ground with airbags and rides on pimped out rims. Its got stock inline-6 with a big aluminum radiator and looks really nice in the pictures. It is missing a huge chunk of originality, but with performance of a base […]
The Ford Maverick was a replacement for the outgoing Ford Falcon and used parts bin Ford (mostly Mustang) parts to offer a basic driving experience. While the world (and the Mustang) changed a lot from 1970 to 1977, the Maverick was offered in the same basic package — a front engine rear-drive 2+2 with a […]
It is the Wednesday, so that means it’s time for another edition of Daily Turismo’s weekly game of anti-slug bug (which is played by punching anyone who suggests playing slug bug) also known as Mid Week Match-Up! Last week we found the best Horrorods in time for Halloween, but it is time for healing…so…bring on […]
Ford may have never made a 4-door Mustang, but they added an extra set of doors to the Maverick and built what is possibly the world’s only 4-door pony car. I know that the prevailing opinion on the classic car market is that 4-door cars are almost never valuable, especially if there was a 2-door […]
