    I just might have found myself a Grabber. "Supposedly" it is in tip-top shape, with a good paint and mint interior. Also said to be rust free. (I am hoping for this, as it has spent its entire life under a shed). The men I talked to went out and looked at it the other day. It has a 302 and (2) 4 bbls. :bananaman :clap: The rest is supposed to be in mint shape. They pulled the battery off of their truck, and the car cranked!! No smoke either! From the description, the rest of the car is original down to the hubcaps. So tomorrow evening (Monday) will tell whether this is fact or fiction. Oh- the color is blue with all of the black grabber stuff. Wish me luck!! Take care everybody! Country
