I would definately swap the hoods before selling the Grabber. Betty looks slick already, but a Grabber hood would really set it off. Of course you would have to go through the trouble of getting the hood painted, but I think it would be very well worth it.
You should check out the gatherings section. there is a show at Knotts in april, and the date is set for the Reno gathering. Be good to meet you and your hubby and your car at one.
