    Go to Hemmings.com there is a '71 Grabber for sale fully restored. It is green with black bucket seat interior, floor shift ,302 2V automatic. Looks nice, all stock I think. Not sure about the wheels covers though he has full size Maverick wheel covers on there. I think it should have trim ring and hub cap but maybe that is what was on there as standard in '71. If not, no big deal. $19,500.

    Not to put the car down, but for that kind of money, I would have liked to seen the correct hubcaps and trim rings, and not the standard plain jain Maverick Hubcaps. I would also liked to have seen the correct stripes. Interior looks real nice.

    Personally I would rather have Ray's car for the same money.

    But only appraised at $22,000 in 2005 :hmmm:

    Not sure if the $45,000 is a misprint :huh:

    What parts of the car would you spend that kind of money on?

    I full on "nuts and bolts" restoration could cost that much.
