Throw back to the original mavericks? Was an eight track an option back then? I can’t say I remember.

I can't exactly remember but some cars may have had the option. Probably not the Maverick car. Of course most music nerds could easily hang an aftermarket one under the dash and splice in the wires. I used to put them into the glove box area. I think that I may have installed and then moved the one we put into the 69 LTD into the 73 LTD.

My 75 had a Kraco (I believe) cassette deck.

When I lived in CO I bought a new 1976 Maverick. It only came with an AM/FM stereo if memory serves me right; no 8 track or CD player. After market was available for both although the 8 track was likely tailing down by that point.

I’m not sure about the 8 track in an early Maverick. But I had a new 1970 Grabber Yellow one. No glove box just a shelf below the dash.

A compact disk in a new ‘76 Maverick would be quite a collectors edition since compact disks were not available until ‘82.

I still have the 8 track player that was in my '68 Mustang when I bought it in 1999.

I thought it was just a Radio until I was cleaning it one day and the flap pushed in. Found a few thrift stores in Virginia that had some tapes.

Good catch. I knew it had neither but forgot when CDs became the in thing.

My 66 Thunderbird has a factory option 8 track. Still works well.
