    Look on ebay, item # 110632469626. It's a '68 Torino GT that was used in the movie for 8 1/2 hours. He has all the paper work for the car and the movie. It looks correct. He has a list of all the cars that they used in the movie including the Maverick. I wonder what happened to the Maverick. Does anyone out there own it or did anyone built one to look like the orginal one? Anyway, they used a lot of cars to make that movie and its interesting to read the list. The Torino GT need a complete restoration and there is a reserve. I think it will be interesting to see how many people will be interested and what it will sell for. If for some reason the number I listed is not correct go to ebay motors click Torino, scroll down you will see the car.

    A friend of mine where I used to live in So Cal spotted a red Maverick Grabber in a storage lot where they keep TV and movie cars. but I doubt it's the D&C Maverick, since the movie was filmed in TX (Austin area), I imagine most the cars were local, and remained in TX
