    Me and a buddy of mine fixed up a 71 or 72 Grabber back in the early 90's. It was his car and I told him I wanted it if he ever sold it. Long story short I went to his house one day and it was gone. It was black with pink Grabber stripes (looked pretty darn good),and had Keystone classic wheels on it.It also had a 351W in it with automatic.
    Just wondering if anyone has seen this car,it was sold to someone in Newnan Ga. back around 94 or 95 I think. Just wondering if it was still around.:huh:

    Roopville is about 30 minutes north of Newnan. I called my buddy John last night, he said the last he heard is, someone seen it going down the dragstrip in Commerce a few years ago. So that may have been the same car.
