    Hello,
    I'm a major ford fan and own a 1993 Taurus SHO. I have been looking for a Grabber or Comet GT to possiblily restore. Also, looking for a 1978 King Cobra to possibily restore. I had a 1977 cobra 2 and a 1978 King Cobra in the past. I should have never let them go. Thanks for the website.:)

    without Comet now just keeping in touch
    the guy who did some carb work on my Comet has a 2 door maverick , with factory Air, that he will not part out, he brought it to his yard on a flat bed with 4 flat tires, I personally have never seen the car, don't have any Idea how much he wants, and no idea if if even runs,
    He knows people are restoring Mavs, so it coudl affect price, but anyway where do you live, this car is in Iowa.

    :Welcome: I have a friend that has a 75 Mustang II with a 302 and been seeing a black Mustang II Cobra runnin around here.

    I like the way Mavericks drive and look better, but whatever floats your boat. :)

    Make a post over in the classifieds. I did and ended up one getting one in less then a Month of being on here. But be warned, once you get one, you can't stop! I now have 3 in just a few months! (y)

    Hello

    :Welcome: You will fit right in here! Its been said everyone hated the Mustang II. Well you could have fooled me! We had a '78 Mustang II Hatchback. It was silver/black (loaded). It was stolen out of our drive way. Never to be seen again!
