    Are you wanting to buy it? Or is it yours and you want to sell it? Are you wanting a value for insurance purposes? Believe it or not.....there could be (3) different values depending on what you are wanting.

    I thought of buying it, she looks like a great driver, and seems like a good investment on the surface, but I don't know quote enough about the Mav/Com hobby yet. I love numbers matching survivors cars.

    Car is not original. All seats are not original. Looks like a tan interior that somebody has changed the back seat as well as installed buckets into. Those bucket seats are also not correct for a 1973 Grabber.

    Car has also been repainted, or at least partially. No WHITE at the bottom as that car should have below the body line.

    Wow, thank you! See, I'm no expert on this as I'm still learning, and maybe this person just doesn't know what he has, but I hope this isn't a scam that someone else doesn't fall into. Seems like a nice enough car from the pics. I wonder if he will send the door sticker pics and answer my engine question. Probably not if he knows he lying about the car.

    He might not be lying on purpose. Probably isn't all the knowledgable about Mavericks/Comets. Only us "nitpickers" really know the ins and outs. :D :yahoo:

    Yeah, I'm hoping not, but he hasn't emailed me back yet.
