    Hi Everyone,

    A friend of mine purchased a 1974 Ford Maverick Grabber new; currently his son is the owner. While I was talking to him, I mentioned that Motor Max now makes 1974 Ford Maverick Grabber die-cast cars... and of course he didn't believe me! I have the 1:24 scale Maverick car now (along with the 1:64 version of the '70 Maverick) and was wondering if anyone produces model car decals for the Grabber. All I've been able to find is Grabber hood decals on eBay. If anyone has any links, please post them.

    Thanks!

    I don't know about the decals, but there are grabber models available now in 1/24th.:)

    I have had the 74-75 decals reproduced in 1:24 scale just for the MotorMax diecasts, but I only have a few sample kits so far. I could sell one kit (both sides & the hood) for $7.50, but I can't really take orders for them since I only have a few. I wanted to produce them in white too, but no luck being able to do that yet. I will have them in black, blue, and orange. PM me to get one set. I'll post them as available once I'm able to work out getting them produced in volume. And as you mentioned, I have both the 71 and 72 Grabber waterslide hood decals in 1:25 scale which are meant for the resin Grabber hood I also sell. They are available in my eBay store. By the way, the 74-75 Grabber decals are self-stick. They will require a tiny bit of trimming, but I've installed some and it's not that big a deal.

    I want a set of decals in black since they do not make a white with black model. When those care were new, orange and black with orange interior was the feature car. Thats what was in the show room when I ordered mine but I didn't like the orange interior at the time. I wish I had one now. It was also a 302 automatic with bucket seats and floor shifter and A/C! While Im at it, there was a black one with white stripes in the neighborhood but that was the only one I have ever seen.
