Was out yard sale looking today and got a decent lead on another Maverick, guy said it's a Grabber so might take a looksee tomorrow . Said he thinks it's priced at $350.00
PICS PICS PICS!!! When you get there to see it, get pics! That is how I found my small bumpers, and all the valences, spoilers, etc for mine. Just word of mouth. The rest of the car I found was a rust heap. But the parts were all I needed to do a small bumper conversion, and get the grabber spoiler and all. If i had known better, I would have gotten the hood, too. But I was a newb at the time, and didn't realize the value of those hoods.
A little exited about this one, it should be a good lead, the guy that told me is into Mustangs big time, and it's in the same area I bought the white Maverick from that I pulled the 289 HiPo out of for my Blue Grabber, yes if I don't forget the camera there will be pics!!
Forget the camera? Use your cell phone! I wish I had pics of the copperhead infested mess I pulled my grabber parts off of. That place was SCARY! And while I was under the car, yanking out bolts, the owner was topside with a 12-gauge shooting mating (fighting?) copperheads all over the property. I was laying in piles of leaves 8" deep, and the owner popped off 5 or 6 snakes in the surrounding area while I was trying to pull parts from that old rusted heap! But I got them all for $100!!!
Dang! Ive been looking and looking and looking around here and non to be found. I travel the back roads everyday and Im always looking for one to be hiding way back behind a house or next to a barn!
Well I just got back from looking.....for it, not there, at least not where I could see it, I'm going by Denny's (the guy that told me about it) house in a day or two and get some more details or take him with me.
i think we've all got terrible directions a time or two..im still serarching for a 71 grabber thats like 30mins from me..ive looked for it probably 12 times or more and still have not spotted it, the guy who gave me directions..well im sure he gets lost a lot. sooner or later i will find it he said its been there for like 15 years so i doubt its going anywhere..you will have better luck - your direction giver still lives around there..mine moved far away. looking forward to seeing what you come up with.
Yep, if it's out there I will find it, breaking out the devining rods soon! I can find water with them so why not a Maverick.
