Well I spoke with him again yesterday, he stated all the parts are there, motor mounts, belly bar (crossmember) tranny mounts and clutch linkage, also learned a few more details, this car at one time had a 351 Cleveland engine in it, then a 351 Windsor, both with the four speed behind them, I believe he also said it has the disc brake conversion already done up front and a 9" rearend, if this is so it would be nice, also the shock towers have been cut back but not welded (dressed out), I have yet to find out exactly where in Georgia this car is, the bad spot on the spoiler is where the shed it was under fell on it in the storms that came through during the summer, he is trying to find the registration for it as I will need that to get a Florida Title on it and is going to call me this AM, I told him just to go to the Georgia DMV and pick up something saying he is the owner on DMV letterhead and that would work fine, waiting is driving me nuts!!! I want this car so I can build the Green Street Beasts Grabber to go with the Blue one I am Currently working on, I just hope HotWheels doesn't come out with another Street Beasts Grabber color, I don't need three Grabbers....well I did have four at one time back in 84'...omg I can't stop buying Mavericks, I admit it, I am sick, I am obsessed, I thought I would grow out of it, but, but...... I have my blue one the "Mo Money Maverick" Wanting another so I can name it "Yo' Money Maverick"....hey come on if I get it it will be paid for with my TIP money!!
Ok I am gonna get it, it is going to be mine!!! and I am paying $1000.00 for it, it will be minus the engine and tranny but EVERYTHING else is there, has a cable style clutch setup that I have no idea what that is (duhhh) but yep he called today, it's in Blue Ridge Georgia.
"I want this car so I can build the Green Street Beasts Grabber to go with the Blue one I am Currently working on, I just hope HotWheels doesn't come out with another Street Beasts Grabber color, I don't need three Grabbers...." Umm, there ARE three street beasts Grabbers. Now you need to find a Red one too. Good luck with the new project.
Nice It sound like you got a pretty good deal on the old car. Blue Ridge is a long drive though. Give me a shout when you get her home, I'd like to stop by and take a look. I think I passed your place a few weeks ago. I was over in Callaway on a job and passed a house with 3 Mavericks in the yard and figured they where yours.

Ryan you are correct, there are three Street Beasts Grabbers, oh crap, now I gotta hunt another one, and at one time I had 2 red Grabbers. Hi Matt, if it was a dirt road in da woods, yep it was mine, there are no longer three Mavericks in the yard now, just my Blue Grabber, gotta wait for him to decide to bring it to me as he said he would so $1000.00 plus delivery would be nice, and yes I would love for you to come by and see it when it gets here, did you get the info you needed about the clutch linkage pivot on the top loader swap?
