Cool Eddie! I might bring my Ranchero out. The Maverick is not ready for the road just yet. I hope the rain holds out for the show! The Texas Roadhouse in Greer is having a car show this year every month this spring/summer.

Hey Fellas Just got a 71 grabber. New to the forum, not so new to fords, I have 8, Ford, Lincoln,Mercury products, and I love them all! My latest addition is a remarkably straight 71 Mav Grabber, 250 I6/C4 column shift. It was a lucky find, and for an awesome price(labor to fix the mans' 72 mav.) 71 was such a great year for Ford, My first car was a '71 Ranch Wagon Custom with the 400M/C6 combo. The thing was the BATTLEWAGON, it would pop a wheelie from 1st to 2nd at around 55-60mph!!! I only did that once. The A-arm bushings were so worn, when it regained earthly contact it was all over the road. Note to self don't pass school bus' on 2 lane road . I own a 2000 Lincoln LS V8(beautiful car), 1993 Explorer XLT w/ 9" of lift, 4.56:1 gears detroit rear auburn front lockers 35 Wrangler MTR's, serious garbage can eating bumpers and a fried transmission, a stupid fast, handling '92 Taurus SHO, '90 turbo Probe GT, '84 F250 diesel w/755,000+ miles, original engine(going for a million), '85 Ford Tempo GL, 223,000 all original miles(clutch even), and my baby a '67 Mercury Cougar. FORD4LIFE! Back to simplicity with the Maverick and I'm excited! thanks DF
Hi Alex I saw one on ebay for 150ish this week, was considering jumping on it, see if it's still there, I want to try and salvage mine, it's a little bent, not so bad. DF
