He fleeced that woman without giving it a second thought and then shamefully ended by reveling in the con. Sad little man.

In its day, the Maverick was the most warranty-free car ever built by Ford. Simple, proven drivetrain options, whereas the Mustang in the same era (and predecessor Mustangs) were one of the most warranty prone repair cars every built by Ford. Would like to see a resto-mod version, the body has all the bones to make "Italian-like".

there is no flipping way Richard sold that car for 10 grand !

I paid $1,200 for my Maverick and it's almost showroom floor pristine. Thanks Richard for bringing up the market value of my car!

I can't believe you ripped her off like that 😪

The magic of TV. 10 grand for that pile ? Nah.

I would love to see a full restoration on this Maverick. 😉

Just bought my grandson a 1973 for 2000 and my neighbor offered 5000 just looking at the pictures. Grandson has wanted this car forever

When was I HS in the early 90s everyone called these the poor man’s mustang. I always thought they looked nice done right.

Thats highway robbery!

People are asking the most ridiculous prices for Mavericks. Heck they want ridiculous prices for any old car. Please leave the Maverick alone. It's the last classic that people can half afford.

My Mom had that exact same model Ford Maverick Grabber in that exact same color combination inside and out. She babied that car and it was mint back in the early 80's.

I had a 73 grabber orange and white with orange interior !! Loved that car bought it new in 73 for $3200 dollars ,,,302 auto,,and the brakes did suck !! Ended up making a pro street car !! Called it the "sleeper" !!!

Let's just hope he husband doesn't watch this video!

I bought a 73 Maverick Grabber new in 73. It cost $3200. It had a 302 V8 and it did have a little snot. Don't forget, it was 500 lbs lighter than a Mustang or Camaro. I'm not saying it was faster than any Mustang or Camero, but if they had similar engines, like a 302 Mustang, or a 307 Camaro, it could beat them.

The good old days when they actually build art, now they just flip for quick cash and their best guy is a skeleton with a hat 🧢 glued to his head

My dad had a 72 Boss Grabber lime green with a black leather interior and a black racing stripe and raised in the back .

I just got a roller 73 4 door for 180 bucks and the guy delivers. I'm gonna make it a beauty lord willing

He said they'll bring 20-25 grand in 5 years 🤣 🤣 🤣 10k What a Crook!

Man you ripped her off

You'd think Mavericks would be worth more just for how hard they are to find.

He totally screwed her on the price... Typical Gas Monkey... I do believe tho that those are going to be worth some big bucks in the not-so-distant future.

Shame on Richard taking advantage of the woman. You know if there was another person even standing around that price would've been way lower, he wouldn't have said that price in front of Dennis and that's why Dennis is known as a class act and Richard is just a clown in the car world.

My first car was a 74 Maverick and I'm building a custom early 70 Maverick which is often also called a (69.5 Early cars) had the ignition on the dash not the steering column. 69.5 to 72 Mavericks had small sporty bumpers like early mustangs. Richard is wrong the 73 is not the holly grail of grabbers. In 73 the front bumper got bigger Then even bigger in 74 along with the rear bumper. However Brazil and Mexico never had to go to the larger bumpers.

How the fck is that the closest match 5:10 ?? E1843 was the one, you can't see the hole in the middle, as it matches. Someone sack Mike already, geez .

What a awesome mom

Had a green ‘72 Comet 4 door as my first car…. She almost rusted out completely. I sold it for $100 and used the $ for my Jr prom 1985.

so she brought it so her husband and daughter can restore it in 16 years, a grand says in 16 years they will be sending it to the scrap yard.

These shows have the worst Negotiating I've ever seen I need their customers when im selling something.

In Brazil they flit full restore Mavericks for at least 35-40k.

Hey these cars get me very excited too my toolbox is still set up for one love the Maverick and that Comet GT

I just bought a 77 V8 for $750 with power disk brakes complete.

10k no way that had to be staged lol car at most was worth 2500

Great find Richard love those cars .headliner, wheels, touch up paint ,spoiler , I'd own that but you got good cash on that thing . solid cars like that all dsg long

Dammit Richard, be cool and sign that over to me 😀

Easy 10k! You put it in an auction with hi end cars worth 20k or more, somebody will jump at it!

i dont care what they say,,,,mavericks are cool and owned many of them over the years..and the maverick is more closely related to the mustang then the pinto ...the only thing that maverick and pinto share are the rear tail lights ,,and thats about it ...mavericks rock

Should have painted the roof white, and touched up the chipped paint

The bus! Where’s the bus? I didn’t like button this and I will never like button another vid until you Finnish that bus!

Hope her daughter knows about airbags safety

I feel bad for that girl. He totally took advantage of her ignorance on cars

I think a running driving one gets you 8k tops some guys want 5k for projectc rust buckets with no floorpans and missing parts

He offered the buyer a 3,000 cash back deal if she bought it at 10,000. so he won the 1,000 bet.

Mavericks were sweet cars. Strap a 347 stroker in one and you've got yourself a monster piece of machinery.

that price was just rude

If they had fully completed it, it MIGHT be worth somewhere near $10K, but not as he sold it. Shameful.

Lady, you bought a Maverick for your kid? WTF, you don't like your kid? Could have at least got her a Vega. Jeez.

Looks like its got a posi-trac rear end by the looks of the burnout.....

"Monkeys" does not require an apostrophe.

Had a similar V8 Maverick in the early 90’s. Sold it for $1,200

My brother only paid 1,500 for his 70 with a 302 boss 4 speed brand new!

Where is the grabber intake hood.

Yeah.... not a grabber guys.

Funny he didn't hung up the phone after he requested his 1000 cash

V8, automatic, but needs new paint and full engine restoration.

I'm from jax fl that was my dream car as a kid damn

Get that money

Where can I find the whole episode?

Highway robbery. her husband will be livid 😆

Call that a restore?😊

Hey, cool Team, burnt out spins your repitoire , certainly know your business on camera, Love the green, I have an all green car but not hybrid yet.How much did the interior cost you to refab..Yeh business is from small to large as you all know..You made a grand too...Cool Mr R 😁

I watched one of these beauties with 302 4 speed do end over and flips After the front suspension Gave way Nobody was hurt even the passengersThat was sitting on the milk crate hanging out the back window when it came to a Rest you can't make this s*** up Good old days seventies

My God that car is hideous.

Yikes ! Stole that lady's money !

My uncle has a maverick and 68 fast back mustang

So what happens when the 2 year old grows up and by time she hits 16 doesn't want a maverick nor even cares or even remembers picking the car out of some toy hot wheels? And don't give me that crap that she should just be thankful for what she gets.

Think of the cars you could buy for $10K. Shawn Pilots finds Corvettes for half that and get thems running. Wasted $ here.

First car I ever own was an AMC Matador. Mine had a vinyl top and V6 that was totally reliable. Had the car when I met, dated and then married my wife - been married now 40-yrs and we still laugh at how I use to sneak kisses by telling her we had to let the car warm up when first started. A few years back she confessed she knew it was only a ploy to keep kissing her.

Denis 🔥🔥🔥🔥

I have bled Mavericks for over 20 years! I have a 74' Grabber one of 186 with my color and options.... That is NOT a 10k car. about what he paid for it car.

My First car but with a v6

Purple with a big stupid spoiler on the back

There's no fucking way he restored it for 10k ? Let's see the paper work ?

Cool 😎

This lady looks like Maddy Orielly

More fake reality TV.

Awesome

Phoney B S

Fake af

We drove a similar but more basic Maverick back and forth to school in the early 80's. I can assure you, they are complete junk.

Adam Waffen 0 seconds ago Clue: A Maverick was as cool in the 1970’s as The Captain and Tenille. Lay it to rest, manboys. What you did back in the 70’s, stays back then.. unless forensic science reveals otherwise.

😄😄😄😄😃😃😃😃😎😎😎😎😎

but why? Mavericks were shiet cars.

That was a rip

I Hope this $10,000 price was just an error in the script and should have been $5,000, just to be realistic. Do they really buy and sell cars anymore or are they simply trying to cash in on the popularity of their ex-TV show ? Is there such a thing as an actual Gas Monkey garage anymore ? This is just one big KZfaq blog now. No TV crew or studio; cost a fraction of producing a TV show. It's lo budget.

Mavericks were not cool cars back then :-) And what the dude said about them being close to a Pinto is right. Most of them had brown plaid interiors and way too many were an ugly cream colour. But, put a V8 in them and you can have some serious fun. Giddyup ! 🙂
