I have to agree. I don't think any 72-up Maverick or Comet has a factory black engine compartment. I've had original owners claim their cars...
I could see it being possible that some 71's might have had black engine compartments based on Dan's assembly manual, but I don't see how it could...
Perhaps...:hmmm:
To illustrate my point of how many people might be interested in a Stabber, I just noticed that this thread has been viewed over 2900 times...
This is what I was trying to say too. My comments weren't so much as questioning 71stabber's car as they were a word of warning for potential...
Only the 1970 models came black in the engine compartment. All other years and models came body color.
I have to say I agree with DaMadman on some of his points. Memories can be even be wrong. I've had supposed "original owners" say they "ordered"...
That thing has a chopped top, doesn't it?? Wow, talk about some work...and getting glass for it...kudos to that guy. Those modified headlamp...
Any copies of any original paperwork on the Stabber? I wondered if they had a bump sticker or it was just listed as a Stabber on the dealer...
Personalized Plates I saw this on a car in Ohio once. They have plates on front and rear, so think what it says when someone in front is looking...
LOVE IT!!
Neat! Here's my West Virginia personalized plate that I have on my 75 4-door "Police Inteceptor." I got it as soon as WV went to 8 digits and...
That's a shame. At least now we know. Same thing probably happened to the JoHan Maverick tooling. Wonder if JoHan or Testors would be willing...
I was wrong. I don't have a sample of the orange/orange(red). I only have lime/lime, gold/white, and black for '72. Sorry. Good luck on them.
I should have been more clear with my description. Sorry about that. I believe I have an NOS sample piece in the color combo you're wanting....
The Testors Comets are a re-issue of the JoHan Pro Stock Comet kits, just under the Testors brand. They are a true plastic model kit. Guess we...
The Grabber word is screen printed on the 2-color '72 stripes and matches the outer pinstripe. I couldn't put my hands on a good picture of that...
Motormax told me about midway through the development process that they probably weren't going to use the chrome Magnum 500-type wheels. I had...
Wow. I had noticed that my local Wal-Marts had sold out of all their plastic model kits and hadn't re-stocked but wasn't sure they were actually...
These have been released several times over the years, generally to hobby shops, not Wally-Worlds and big retailers. Wal-Mart is carrying some...
