Besides Mustang and the Pinto, what was Ford’s other economy car during the mid-1970s? That’s right, the Maverick! MotoeXotica Classic Cars is pleased to present this 1977 Maverick Coupe. This example is a fully restored car that spent most of its life in California.
Built at Ford’s Claycomo, Missouri factory in December 10, 1976, this car is finished in Light Green (code 47) with a Dark Emerald ¾ Odense-style vinyl roof (code HQ) custom pinstriping and a green vinyl and cloth interior (code QG). It was originally delivered to the Seattle, Washington region. The car’s paint and trim are in overall very good order though there are some minor blemishes on the hood and vinyl roof.
The Maverick’s glass windows are in very good order while the lights, bodywork and chrome bumpers are all in excellent condition. The car’s engine bay is extremely tidy, the battery appears new. This Maverick rolls on BFGoodrich Radial TA tires, surrounding styled steel wheels with trim rings.
Under the hood is Ford’s 250 CID Thriftpower inline six-cylinder engine with Dura Spark Ignition (VIN code L) buttoned to a C4 Cruise-O-Matic three-speed automatic transmission (code W) with 2.79:1 gearing (code 3). ’77 Mavericks also had front disc brakes with no power assist and a 19.2-gallon gas tank as standard equipment.
Inside, the car has a green vinyl and cloth interior (code QG). The front buckets and rear bench seats are in very good shape, as is the green, cut pile carpeting and the headliner. The factory two-spoke steering wheel is present and in better-than-average condition while the green instrument panel and inner door panels reflect the rest of the interior’s theme. Speedometers in 1977 were revised to display miles per hour and kilometers per hour. Completing the interior is a Kenwood AM/FM stereo with CD player.
The Maverick was originally conceived and marketed as a subcompact “import fighter,” intended to do battle with the Volkswagen Beetle and newer Japanese rivals for North America from Honda, Datsun and Toyota. The Falcon, Ford’s compact offering since 1960 and main rival to the Chevrolet Nova and Dodge Dart, had seen its sales decimated by the introduction of the Mustang in 1964 and despite a redesign in 1966, was unable to meet the then forthcoming U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration motor vehicle standards that would come into effect on January 1, 1970. Consequently, the Falcon was discontinued midway through the 1970 model year and the Maverick repositioned as Ford’s compact entry, giving the Nova and Dart a new rival. A bigger Falcon was a rebranded low-trim version of the Fairlane for the second half of the model year, then went away.
The Maverick’s styling featured the long hood, fastback roof and short deck popularized by the Mustang, on a 103-inch wheelbase — and featured pop-out rear side windows.
Nearly 579,000 Mavericks were produced in its first year, approaching the record-setting first year of Mustang sales (nearly 619,000) and easily outpaced the Mustang’s sales of fewer than 200,000 in 1970. Ford only sold 40,086 ’77 Maverick coupes in 1977, in it’s final year of production.
Documentation includes original owner’s manual and a copy of Family Circle Magazine’s 16-page booklet, “The Woman’s Guide to Car Maintenance, Repair and Emergencies.”
Competition to this Maverick in 1977 included AMC’s Hornet, Buick’s Skyhawk, Chevrolet’s Monza and Vega, Datsun’s 710, Dodge’s Colt, Ford’s Mustang II and Pinto, Honda’s Civic and Accord, Mazda’s RX-3, Mercury’s Capri and Comet, Oldsmobile’s Starfire, Pontiac’s Sunbird and Astre, Plymouth’s Arrow and Toyota’s Celica and Corolla.

om Ford
Ford, som grundades 1902, har utan tvekan förändrat historien om bilvärlden mer än någon annan biltillverkare genom att införa de första folkbilen Modell T 1908. De hade producerat mer än 15 miljoner bilar i slutet av produktionen 1927, genom vilket T hade blivit föråldrade.

Ford lanserade den första lågpris V8-motor driven bil 1932. 1932 V8 var en omedelbar hit med överlägsen hantering och prestanda för många betydligt mer expansiva bilar av dagen. Inte undra på 32 V8 Ford har blivit en sådan favorit bland heta rodders runt om i världen med 32 Deuce Coupe som sin ikon.

Under kriget Ford helt stänga civil bilproduktionen att ägna alla sina resurser till de allierade krigsansträngningarna (1942-1945) De används för att bygga B-24 bombplan, flygmotorer, jeepar, M-4 stridsvagnar, militära lastbilar och Bren-gun bärare och mer än 30.000 super laddade Rolls Royce Merlin V-12 motorer till Mosquito och Lancaster bombplan samt P-51 Mustang fighters. Efter kriget Ford bilar i USA blev större och flashier tillsammans med sina konkurrenter. I 60: s Ford var tillbaka i förgrunden igen när man inför deras kommersiella hit Mustang 1964. Mustang var så populär tävlingen var tvungen att följa Fords exempel och ponycar fenomenet tog över USA. Under åren ponnyer växte några muskler tills oljekrisen döda äntligen dödat dem.

På sextiotalet rusade Ford i internationell motorsport scenen med en raseri. Efter misslyckade Ferrari övertagande, då Enzo Ferrari hade klippt affären av med Henry Ford II gör det senare absolut koka av vrede, vände Ford till Lola i Storbritannien för att producera en Ferrari slog långdistans racer efter. Samarbetet mellan Ford och Lola skapade den mäktiga Ford GT40 som absolut slog Ferrari i Le Mans 24 flera gånger.

I Europa införde Ford några av de mest episka race och rallybilar av 60-talet som bygger på ödmjuka familj sedaner; Cortina GT, Lotus Cortina, Escort Twin Cam, och Escort 1600RS med de ikoniska Cosworth BDA motorer.

Idag klassiska Fords är mycket populär bland entusiaster och ett stort urval av klassiska Fords finns till försäljning på www.ClassicDigest.com
